  1. aVia Charles River Laboratories France (L’Arbresle Cedex, France) The Jackson Laboratory was contacted and they provided us the generation number of the strains used in this study. N, Number of backcross generations; F, Filial or inbreeding (sister x brother) generations; p, designates the generation when a strain was cryopreserved; +, indicates the generation of a strain upon arrival at The Jackson Laboratory. Generation numbers before the ‘+’ took place in the lab of Dr. Joseph Nadeau from Case Western Reserve University, after the ‘+’ at The Jackson Laboratory.
  2. bThese variables are used as a covariate in the one-way ANCOVA (see Table 3).
  3. cOfficial abbreviation (see http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/nomen/strains.shtml#inbred_strains).
