Abstract
This study was designed to assess the separate effects of inbreeding the mother and the pups on behavioral development in the mouse. The pups were tested on a standardized developmental rating scale at 32 days gestational age. The results indicated that maternal inbreeding retarded development by 1.5 days and that inbreeding the pups retarded development by .7 days.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
