Quantile-Specific Heritability of Intakes of Alcohol but not Other Macronutrients.

abstract：:Interpretation of studies using single gene mutants is complicated by possible epistatic interactions with genetic background. Dopamine D2 receptor (Drd2) knockout mice on a C57BL/6 (B6) background show decreased basal locomotion, ethanol preference and ethanol-induced ataxia. Epistatic interactions were studied by ex...
