QTL analysis identifies multiple behavioral dimensions in ethological tests of anxiety in laboratory mice.
- Abstract:
-
BACKGROUND: Ethological tests of anxiety-related behaviors, such as the open field arena and elevated plus maze, are often carried out on transgenic animals in the attempt to correlate gene function with a behavioral phenotype. However, the interpretation of such tests is problematic, as it is probable that different tests measure different aspects of behavior; indeed, anxiety may not be a unitary phenomenon. Here, we address these questions by asking whether behaviors in five ethological te...
