*For the analysis of the timing of VO and body weight at VO in each strain versus homozygous non‐mutant Cftr (WT) mice, statistical significance was attributed to p<0.0125 to correct for multiple hypothesis testing; see Methods for details.
n, number of animals; NA, not applicable; NS, not significant; SD, standard deviation; VO, vaginal opening.
