Refined mapping of a quantitative trait locus on chromosome 1 responsible for mouse embryonic death.

Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is defined as the loss of three or more consecutive pregnancies during the first trimester of embryonic intrauterine development. This kind of human infertility is frequent among the general population since it affects 1 to 5% of women. In half of the cases the e...
