Abstract
The mutant characters albinism, pallid, hairless, dominant piebald and yellow which have appeared in several races of Peromyscus maniculatus were tested for genetic linkage. An average of 274 gametes were tested in each of the 10 combinations of the mutations. Each character appeared to segregate in a random manner with every other. Some of the characters are very similar to characters in other rodents and rabbits.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
