strain_characteristics This rat exhibits similar phenotypes to Becker muscular dystrophy(BMD): focal skeletal muscle necrosis and regeneration at 8 weeks of age and muscular hypertrophy at 8 months of age in affected male rats. 1302502
strain_reproduction In male rats, spermatogenesis is not observed (infertility). This IF2 strain _W-Dmdem3Kykn_died out in 2015. 1302502
