Intra-H-2 recombination inH-2b/H-2t1 heterozygotes in the mouse

Four cases of intra-H-2 recombination were detected during serological screening of 1066 backcross animals produced fromH-2^b/H-2^t1 heterozygous mice. Three of the intra-H-2 recombinants received theK region fromH-2^t1 and theD region from theH-2^b parental chromosome. The remaining recombinant received theK region from theH-2^b parental chromosome and theD region fromH-2^t1. Three of the four recombinants have been developed into inbred lines TBR2, TBR3, and TBR4 and were assigned the haplotype designations at², at³, and at⁴. Ss typing revealed that TBR2 and TBR3 originated fromK- S interval crossover events, while the remaining two recombinants resulted from crossing over in theS- D interval.
