We detected a total of 13 strains that were still heterozygous (BXA20 from D1Mit77 to D1Mit490 ; AXB21 from D2Mit102 to D2Mit420 , AXB24 at D3Mit62 , BXA23 at D5Mit95 , AXB3 and BXA16 at D12Mit167 , BXA20 from D13Mit224 to D13Mit254 ; BXD31 at D9Mit243 , BXD34 at D7Mit281 , BXD37 at D1Mit83 ; BXH12 at D1Mit417 , BXH10 at D12Mit167 ; CXB8 from D1Mit361 to D1Mit291 ).
