TheoriginalC57BL/6JsubstrainfromTheJacksonLaboratorywassentto theNationalInstitutesofHealth(NIH)in1951.TheNIHsubstrain,C57BL/6N,waslaterdistributedtoseveralinstitutesincludingCharlesRiverLaboratoriesin1974(C57BL/6NCrl), toHarlan(nowEnvigo,C57BL/6NHsd)in1974 and1988,andtoTaconic(C57BL/6NTac)in1991.In2005,theNsubstraincamebacktoTheJacksonLaboratory,andis knownastheC57BL/6NJsubstrain.Currently,atleast100generations ofbreedingseparateC57BL/6JsubstrainsfromallC57BL/6Nsubstrains(Figure3).
