Origin:

The DBA/2 inbred model was developed by Little in 1929-1930 by intercrossing to generate new sublines, 12 (now known as DBA/1 and 212 (now known as DBA/2). NIH received stock at F34 from Midler in 1951. Midler received stock from Little in 1938. Taconic received axenic breeders at F137 from the NIH Animal Genetic Resource in 1981. The Taconic foundation colony was at F201 in 2005.
