QTL mapping for genetic determinants of lipoprotein cholesterol levels in combined crosses of inbred mouse strains

To identify additional loci that influence lipoprotein cholesterol levels, we performed quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping in offspring of PERA/EiJ×I/LnJ and PERA/EiJ×DBA/2J intercrosses and in a combined data set from both crosses after 8 weeks of consumption of a high fat-diet. Most QTLs ident...
