Table 1.
Cross | Total # of offspring | # affected | % affected | % expected if recessive | total # of litters |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
3H1 tu/tu × 3H1 tu/tu (INC) | 140 | 32 | 23 | 100 | 39 |
3H1 tu/tu × BALB +/+ (OC) | 55 | 0* | 0* | 0 | 15 |
3H1 tu/tu × 3H1×BALB tu/+ (BC) | 359 | 36 | 10 | 50 | 70 |
A 95% confidence interval of 0.0–5.82% is estimated for 0% occurrence in a sample size of 50 (Sokal and Rohlf, 1981).
IN = inbred cross; OC = outcross; BC = backcross.
