Development

This double congenic was constructed from the congenic strains AK.L-Lith1^C57L/J and AK.L-Lith2^C57L/J. At the time of the intercross both congenics were N5. Both the Lith1 and Lith2 congenics retain the lithogenic diet-induced gallstone susceptibility phenotype from C57L/J on the gallstone resistant AKR/J background.
