The BXD recombinant inbred (RI) strains are used to study the genetics of behavioral phenotypes including alcohol and drug addiction, stress, and locomotor activity. The BXD set of RI strains also are used in the genetic analysis of numerous complex or potentially complex physiologic phenotypes including differences in organ weight and bone mineral density.&nbsp;The strain distribution pattern (SDP) for the BXD RI strains is available through <a href=" http://gn2.genenetwork.org" target="_blank"> Gene Network2</a>. Genotypes can be downloaded at <a href=" http://www.genenetwork.org/webqtl/main.py?FormID=sharinginfo&amp;GN_AccessionId=600" target="_blank"> GeneNetwork BXD Genotype Database</a>. In GeneNetwork, you can select either "classic" genotypes or the new genotypes (BXD104 to BXD220). Additional tools and information are presented through the Mouse Phenome Database <a href=" http://phenome.jax.org/db/q?rtn=strains/panelhome&amp;reqpanelsym=BXD" target="_blank"> Specialized Strain Panel Query Form</a>.&nbsp;This recombinant inbred is part of the Special Mouse Strains Resource (SMSR), which is supported by funding from the Office of Resource Infrastructure Programs, Office of the Director, National Institutes of Health under award number P40OD011102.

The BXD#/Rww recombinant inbred (RI) strains originate from crosses between C57BL/6J (<a href="https://www.jax.org/strain/000664"">000664</a>) females and DBA/2J (<a href="https://www.jax.org/strain/000671"">000671</a>). They may be used to study the genetics of behavioral phenotypes (including alcohol and drug addiction, stress, and locomotor activity) and complex or potentially complex physiologic phenotypes (including differences in organ weight and bone mineral density).
