Dominance of AKR Lymphocytes in Tetraparental AKR←⇐CBA-T6T6 Chimaeras

Nature New Biology volume 243, pages 207–208 (1973)Cite this article

Mullen and Whitten1 have demonstrated a correlation between coat phenotype and gametic output in tetraparental chimaeras produced by ovum fusion. We report a parallel study of AKR←⇐CBA-T6T6 chimaeras extended to include the assessment of lymphocyte chimaerism in blood culture.
