Recombinant inbred strains, their progenitor strains, and their reciprocal F1 hybrids were tested for maze learning in the Lashley III maze and in the Y-water maze. The resulting pattern of strain distribution suggested that the genetic model provided by the RI strains is based on at least two, and possibly many more, loci. There was no evidence of maternal effects or heterosis. Although the BALB/cBy strain represented an extremely high scoring strain for the Lashley maze and a low scoring strain for the Y-maze, presence of albino recombinant inbred strains intermediate to extreme strains and nonsignificantly different from pigmented recombinant inbred strains suggested that the albino gene was not responsible for the observed performance differences.

SUMMARY Plasma corticosterone levels were determined fluorometrically in mice of two unrelated highly inbred strains, C57BL/6By and BALB/cBy, and in seven of their derived recombinant-inbred strains as well as their F1 hybrid and backcross generations necessary to arrive at a genetic model for plasma corticosterone levels. It was concluded that the simplest genetic model, and one which fits the experimental results, was one which assumed that plasma corticosterone levels are controlled genetically by two loci with the epistatic interaction indicating dependency of pathways of action for the two genes.

To examine the role of autologous IgG in the induction of murine rheumatoid factors (RF) we have analyzed the allotypic specificity of anti-IgG2a RF in recombinant inbred strains derived from 129/Sv (Igh-1a) and C57BL/6 (Igh-1b) mice. In five of six Igh-1a strains, anti-IgG2a RF reacted with IgG2aa but failed to react with IgG2ab. In contrast, isotype-specific RF, which reacted equally well with a and b allotypes of IgG2a, represented the major RF species in one Igh-1a and all five Igh-1b strains tested. An additional form of RF specific for IgG2ab and not reactive with IgG2aa was detected in one Igh-1b strain. RF specific for a give allotype was thus only found in the presence of that allotype, which strongly suggests the involvement of autologous IgG in the induction of mouse RF synthesis. The specificity of RF was apparently further controlled by genes linked to but different from the Igh-C locus, as indicated by the absence of IgG2aa-specific RF in one of the 6 Igh-1a strains tested. Because this strain, 129XBG, has been shown to express idiotypic markers characteristic of Igh-1b mice, it is likely that the genes, which in the presence of a given allotype induce the production of isotype rather than allotype-specific RF, are identical to those that control the expression of idiotypes. Evidence was also obtained to indicate that Igh-1-linked genes influence the isotypic specificity and the isotype of RF itself: IgA anti-IgG2a predominated in Igh-1a strains and IgM anti-IgG1 in Igh-1b strains. Interestingly enough, total IgA and IgG2a levels also were higher in Igh-1a than in Igh-1b strains.
