Description:
Set of 17 recombinant inbred strains developed by Pravenec, Klir and Kren from a cross between SHR/OlaIpcv and BN.Lx/CubIpcv, and described by Pravenec et al (1988). Strains have now been typed at 500 loci and scanned for quantitative trait loci associated with blood pressure and heart weight (Pravenec et al, 1995). These recombinant inbred strains are derived from the (SHR/OlaIpcvx BN-Lx/Cub)F2 pairs.
