Key result
Mouse strain differences influence the incubation period of the Lansing poliomyelitis virus, but factors other than genetic constitution are also important in determining this variability.
Factors other than genetic constitution play an important role in determining the incubation period of poliomyelitis in mice.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Urges caution attributing incubation differences solely to genetics in mouse poliomyelitis models; leaves open non-genetic determinants for further study.
It is concluded from these observations that, although strain differences are found, other factors than constitution are important in determining the variable incubation periods observed with the Lansing strain of poliomyelitis virus within strains oi white mice.
