X-Y chromosome dissociation in wild derived Mus musculus subspecies, laboratory mice, and their F1 hybrids. 1982

Y Matsuda, and H T Imai, and K Moriwaki, and K Kondo, and F Bonhomme

The frequencies of X and Y chromosome dissociation in primary spermatocytes of wild-caught specimens of six Mus musculus subspecies, fifteen inbred mouse strains, and their F1 hybrids were examined. Three different types (I, II, and III) of X-Y dissociation were identified. Type I was found in inter-subspecies hybrids (BALB/c X M. m. molossinus, M. m. bactrianus, M. m. castaneus, or M. m. urbanus), in which the X-Y dissociation was less than 20% in each subspecies but 60-80% in the f1 hybrids. Type II was seen in the DBA/2J and DDK strains, in which the dissociation frequency was about 30% in the homozygous condition and increased up to 50% in inter-strain hybrids (C57BL/6J X DBA/2J or DDK). Type III found in the WB/Re strain also showed high dissociation frequency (51.1%) in the homozygous condition but the value was remarkably lower (11.3%) in C57BL/6J X WB/Re)F1s. Some asian wild mice seem to have type II or III as well as type I.

D012730 Sex Chromosomes The homologous chromosomes that are dissimilar in the heterogametic sex. There are the X CHROMOSOME, the Y CHROMOSOME, and the W, Z chromosomes (in animals in which the female is the heterogametic sex (the silkworm moth Bombyx mori, for example)). In such cases the W chromosome is the female-determining and the male is ZZ.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.
