Abstract

By using recombinant inbred mice derived from strains genetically resistant or susceptible to Yersinia enterocolitica, we demonstrated a tentative linkage of resistance with the Es-1 locus on murine chromosome 8. No correlation with resistance and genes associated with immune regulation was evident. In addition, resistance appeared to be multigenic.
