Abbreviations: Acrocentrics, all autosomes except bivalent 19 (*these values include bivalent 19); Cells, number of cells analyzed; F1, laboratory-bred F1 between the Tunisian Rb and St populations; HYB, laboratory-bred F1 and wild hybrids between the Italian Rb and St populations; n, number of chromosomal arms analyzed; Rb, Rb homozygotes; St, Standard homozygotes.

The data for the Rb and St Tunisian mice are from Dumas and Britton-Davidian (2002).
