Properties of MSCV-GFP founder and F1 mice in comparison to wild-type mice.

The first letter (I) of the identification (ID) indicates that the mouse was generated on an ICR background. Littermates have the same letter (A–E) at the second position. Numbers (0 or 1) at the third position show the filial generation of the transgenic mice and are followed by an abbreviation of the genotype, either wild-type (Wt) or transgenic (Tg). The final numbers are serial numbers in the same filial generation. Since there was no wild type in the F0 generation and also in the F1 offspring, the wild-type ICR mice (IAWt-1, IAWt-2 and IBWt-3) were obtained from a same supplier. F; female, M.
