The animals listed in ‘Progeny crosses’ are G1 siblings of the corresponding chimaera, indicated as dam×sire. The length of time these crosses were performed is listed under ‘Days mated’. In some cases, the animals were mated twice, as indicated by separate line entries. The number of pups from these intercrosses is listed under ‘G1×G1 pups’. The values in ‘G1×B6 pups/litter’ are the average litter sizes of each G1 parent (dam; sire) when mated with C57BL/6J (a dash indicates that the animal was never outcrossed). The average of these averages is 5.3.
Pups died before weaning.
