Figure 2. Multidimensional scaling plot of pairwise genetic distances between mice.

Figure 2

Distances were constructed using polymorphisms at all available genomic markers. More genetic variability in the founder population (green) results in larger genomic distances between the individuals, signifying greater diversity than in the selected lines (red and blue). The high and low lines appear distinct but also more clustered because of smaller distances between individuals compared with the larger variability in the founder animals.
