  * MT indicates metallothionein I; N/A, not available; and S/D, Sprague-Dawley.
  {dagger} Recipient rats were treated with busulfan (10 mg/kg) at 8-10 dpp and used for transplantation between 18 and 22 days of age.
  {ddagger} Testis weights were determined at the end of the breeding period (13-23 months of age).
  § Recipient A1718 had only 1 testis.
  || Died before testis weight could be recorded.
