Abstract

Oligonucleotide primers of random sequence that were 12 bases in length, 58% in GC content, and lacking internal palindromes were designed. By random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) PCR, these primers were used to survey for DNA variations between the progenitors of the mouse AXB and BXA recombinant inbred sets (A/J and C57BL/6J). We identified 17 DNA variants detected by 10 primers. Map positions for these variants were determined by comparing their strain distribution patterns in the AXB, BXA recombinant inbred sets with strain distribution patterns of previously published loci. When necessary, BXD and NXSM recombinant inbred sets were also used. These 17 new loci mapped to 12 chromosomes. The 10 primers were also used to survey 20 inbred mouse strains including the progenitors of other recombinant inbred sets and four mouse strains recently inbred from the wild (CAST/Ei, MOLF/Ei, PERA/Ei, and SPRET/Ei).
