Abstract In terms of the total genetic variance attributable to additive and dominance effects in laboratory-reared mice, the results of the diallel study of Hahn and Haber and that of Henderson are quite similar. Variance due to directional dominance toward large brains is considerably less for laboratory cage-reared animals in both studies than for mice reared in enriched environments.
