The kinetics of spermatogenesis in the mouse, and the possible genetic controls, have been investigated in different genotypes by means of the method of velocity sedimentation at unit gravity to separate testis cells and nuclei labelled with tritiated thymidine. The progression of the radioactivity through different sedimentation classes of cells provides a measure of their kinetics. The results demonstrate kinetic differences at the stage of spermatocyte differentiation between the C57BL/6 and AKR inbred strains of Mus musculus musculus and in randombred mice of the subspecies Mus m. molossinus. These kinetic differences are controlled by genetic factors which are not linked to the Y chromosome. The relevant autosomal alleles of C57BL/6 are dominant over those of AKR in F1 hybrids.
