Several reports have indicated genetic linkage between markers on the short arm of chromosome 6 and schizophrenia. However, significant threshold levels were not always achieved, and the chromosomal regions identified are large and different in different families. One way to decrease the problem of

Evidence for suggestive linkage to schizophrenia with chromosome 6q markers was previously reported from a two-stage approach. Using nonparametric affected sib pairs (ASP) methods, nominal p-values of 0.00018 and 0.00095 were obtained in the screening (81 ASPs; 63 independent) and the replication (1
reported a candidate bipolar affective disorder (BAD) locus on chromosome 21q22.3. As a replication study, we analyzed 12 Australian BAD pedigrees for the presence of excess allele sharing and cosegregation with the putative chromosome 21q22.3 BAD locus, using six microsatellite markers. The nonpara
Three gene-rich loci-HS212G6, HSU93305, and HS884M20-within the short arm of the X chromosome have been examined for allelic association with schizophrenia by the transmission disequilibrium test in 70 families of male individuals affected with schizop h r e n i a .

Pulver et al. [1994a] reported modest linkage evidence for a dominantly (D) inherited ''schizophrenia gene'' in the vicinity of IL2RB on chromosome 22q12, and Coon et al. [1994] adduced moderate evidence under a recessive (R) model. We report here a replication study to test the hypothesis that one
Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is a distinct epileptic syndrome with a complex mode of inheritance. Several studies found evidence for a locus involved in JME on chromosome 6 near the HLA region. Recently, Elmslie et al. [1997] reported evidence of linkage in JME to chromosome 15q14 assuming a re
