| abstractText | Attainment of the horizontal position by the secondary palatal shelves and fusion in relationship to morphological and chronological ages in T1Wh, and albino strain of mice homozygous for a 5;19 Robertsonian translocation, was found to be late and slow in comparison to other strains previously investigated. Spontaneous and cortisone-induced cleft palate frequencies of 3.5% and 100% respectively, were found in this strain. Its slow and late palatal closure, high susceptibility to cortisone, obvious marker chromosomes, and good breeding performance promise to make T1Wh a useful strain for cleft palate research. |
