the QTL). The most recent systematic review (Crabbe et al. 1999) of the alcohol-related QTL data for the various alcohol-related traits being mapped, which now is out of date, listed the likely locations of several genes affecting alcohol withdrawal severity, preference for drinking, and sensitivity to alcohol’s effects. Researchers at the Oregon Health & Science University now maintain a much more recent update of mouse alcohol QTL locations for these and other alcohol-related traits, which can be accessed via the Portland Alcohol Research Center Web site (http://www.ohsu.edu/parc/).
