A systematic search for correlations between numerous minor skeletal variants in the mouse showed that these are few in number and feeble in extent. This apparent lack of integration is probably due to the fact that these characters are at the extreme limits of genetical determination and so are overwhelmingly influenced by chance in their manifestation.
