Hereditary Defect in Iron Absorption in Mice

SEX linked anaemia, which is hypochromic and microcytic 1 , was first observed in the male descendants of an irradiated mouse, and was shown to be an X linked recessive trait 2 . The gene symbol has been designated sla and its locus lies close to Tabby ( Ta ) and Brindled ( Mo br ) in linkage group...
