This YCB Chromosome on the C57BL/6J background results in Y-linked sex reversal wherein XYCB are frequently hermaphrodites. These hermaphrodites often do breed.

This YCB Chromosome on the C57BL/6J background results in Y-linked sex reversal wherein XYCB are frequently hermaphrodites. These hermaphrodites often do breed.
Capanna et al. (Chromosoma, 1976 v58 p341) trapped feral mice in the town of Larino, in Campobasso Province, Italy and found that the resulting stock had a variety of Robertsonian translocations. The Y Chromosome from this CB stock was backcrossed onto the inbred C57BL/6JEi background resulting in this consomic strain. Thus, the autosomal translocations of the CB stock are not present in this consomic strain. Embryos were cryopreserved from matings of C57BL/6JEi females with consomic males at generation N20.
When using the B6Ei-Chr YCB mouse strain in a publication, please cite the originating article(s) and include JAX stock #001543 in your Materials and Methods section.

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project. We do not guarantee breeding performance and therefore suggest that investigators order more than one breeding pair to avoid delays in their research.
