[Comparative characteristics of the parameters of an aggressive reaction in 2 mouse genotypes].

The parameters have been studied of the aggressive reaction of male mice of CBA/Lac and C57BL/6J lines differing by olfactory sensitivity to zoosocial pheromone stimuli. It has been shown that CBA males, characterized by a high olfactory sensitivity, have lower latency of the first attack than C57BL males with low olfactory sensitivity. A prolonged distant exposition to an unknown litter and male appearance lowers the latency of the first attack in mice of the studied lines proportionally to their meanings demonstrated after short time exposition. The number of attacks and total time of attacking is considerably higher in C57BL mice during the whole test period (15 min) than in CBA mice in which aggressivity is already sharply lowered after 5 min of agonistic interactions. The factors are discussed, influencing the parameters of mice aggressive reaction.
