This book constitutes a unique source of information on mouse variants and is an essential reference for those many biologists who use mouse genetic strains and variants in their research. The third edition reflects the great expansion of knowledge in the field in recent years, and includes new chapters on transgenics, simple sequence polymorphisms, and recombinant cogenic strains. Data in other chapters have increased several fold and the book is double in length. As in earlier editions, the main chapter provides a catalogue of all known mouse genes. Other chapters give tables of DNA probes and RFLPs, and of mapped mouse - human homologies. Genetic maps are supported by a large table of data on recombinant fractions. There are catalogues of known chromosome aberrations, of inbred strains, and of wild-derived strains. Valuable tables give strain distribution patterns of alleles in recombinant inbred strains. Three very important chapters give the latest rules for nomenclature of genes, inbred strains, and chromosome aberrations.
