Behavioural phenotyping of mouse mutants

Behavioural Brain Research, 2001
Behavioural phenotyping of mouse mutants is not a goal in itself but serves to characterise the behavioural effects of naturally occurring or experimentally induced mutations. Genetically engineered mouse mutants are valuable tools to elucidate the genetic control of behaviour and the interaction between genetic and environmental factors.

Recent developments in the study of behaviour phenotypes

Australia and New Zealand Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 1994
This paper discusses issues arising from studies of the particular behavioural and psychopathological traits associated with genetic intellectual disability syndromes. These traits constitute what are now called behavioural phenotypes. The mechanism of inheritance of the Fragile X gene has now been demonstrated, and behavioural correlates identified ...

The heterozygous reeler mouse: behavioural phenotype

Behavioural Brain Research, 2004
The aim of this study was to investigate whether heterozygous reeler mice (+/rl) could be used as a genetic mouse model of schizophrenia, as previously suggested [J. Med. Chem. 44 (2001) 477]. The behavioural phenotype of male and female +/rl mice (young adult: 50-70 days old, and fully adult: >75 days old) was compared to their wild type ...

Psychiatry, 2009
Abstract Genetic disorders account for a sizeable proportion of learning disabilities. Several disorders are associated with mental ill-health. The commonest examples of psychiatric morbidity include psychosis, depression and dementia. Here, three examples of chromosomal abnormalities that have significant research evidence are used to discuss the ...
