Abstract

In this article we describe the main characteristics and peculiarities of the different strains and stocks of laboratory animals from the genetic point of view. We explain how they are produced and maintained as well as their advantages and disadvantages in the context of animal experiments. We also provide some guidance to make the best possible choice when establishing an experimental protocol. Curr. Protoc. Mouse Biol. 1:213-238. © 2011 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
