Staggerer mutant male mice generally do not mate and olfactory disabilities may be involved. Choice tests were used to determine the preference of C57BL/6 male mice with the staggerer mutation for urine and vaginal secretions from receptive and unreceptive females. The staggerer mutation does not prevent the olfactory discrimination between vaginal secretions of estrous and anestrous females. Male preferences for odors of receptive females are related to the presence of sexual experience.
蹒跚突变雄性小鼠通常不交配，可能涉及嗅觉障碍。采用选择试验来确定具有蹒跚突变的C57BL/6雄性小鼠对处于发情期和非发情期雌性小鼠尿液及阴道分泌物的偏好。蹒跚突变并不妨碍对发情期和非发情期雌性小鼠阴道分泌物的嗅觉辨别。雄性小鼠对处于发情期雌性小鼠气味的偏好与性经验的存在有关。
