| congenic |
pertaining to two inbred strains of animals that are genetically identical except at a single locus or a few specified loci so that their known genetic differences are expressed in the same “genetic background.” A congenic strain is produced by outbreeding a strain and then eliminating the background genes by many generations of backcrosses while maintaining the desired genetic differences by selection of progeny. Called also coisogenic.
