A backcross of NOD × (NOD × 129.H2g7) was generated to identify 129S1/SvJ non-MHC regions contributing to type 1 diabetes development. A genome scan for QTLs affecting clinical diabetes, age of diabetes onset, and insulitis severity was performed for detection of diabetes susceptibility loci in 310 female mice from this cross. For detailed information see Leiter et al 2009.
