Maternal behaviors of wild-type and MAOA mutant mice
Genotype | Nesting | Nursing | Pup retrieval |
---|---|---|---|
Wild type | 1.35 ± 0.19 | 0.8 ± 0.08 | 12.7 ± 2.69 |
MAOA | 1.50 ± 0.19 | 0.19 ± 0.10 | 14.4 ± 2.94 |
Values are shown by mean ±SEM. Nesting: 0, no nesting; 1, incomplete nesting; and 2, complete nesting. Nursing: 0, no nursing; 1, nursing. Pup retrieval, the average time (seconds) it took the mother to retrieve displaced pups. Wild-type mice (n = 4); MAOA mice (n = 4).
