Influence of sex and diet on quantitative trait loci for HDL cholesterol levels in an SM/J by NZB/BlNJ intercross population

To investigate the dependence of HDL quantitative trait loci (QTL) on sex and diet, we generated a large intercross population of mice from parental strains SM/J and NZB/BlNJ.
