Summary
This paper gives new data on the simultaneous segregation of the mutant luxate,lx, in the house mouse, with marker genes at twenty-six other loci. There is no significant evidence of linkage witha, b, bt, c, Ca, d, f, Fu, fz, je, ln, p, pa, Re, ru,Sd, si, U, v, Va, wa-1, wa-2 or sex. Linkage is found betweenlx and the third linkage group mutantW v, with recombination estimated at 17·7±1·2% (standard error); recombination betweenlx and two other markers in this group,hr ands, is estimated at 47·8±3.·7% and 51·2±1·8% respectively. The order of the loci islx, W, hr, s.
