Abstract

A common link between the induction of leukemia by (i) fractionated doses of x-irradiation and (ii) radiation leukemia virus in mice may be established by the observation that the segment of chromosome 2 between the loci for the minor histocompatibility antigen H-30 and color coat agouti (H-30-A) includes distinct loci involved in susceptibility to leukemogenesis induced by factors i and ii.
