โฆ Synopsis
In nine family pedigrees in which X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is segregating, a multi-point linkage analysis has been carried out. In each family, the map distance, d, between XLA and a fixed point in a known map of nine RFLP loci on the X chromosome was estimated by calculating the log likelihoods, L(d). Using a new method, the 10-point likelihood was approximated by appropriately combining three 4-point likelihoods. Homogeneity tests (admixture tests) were performed showing clear evidence for heterogeneity of XLA.

The X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (XLA) gene locus has previously been mapped to Xq22 in genetic linkage studies. The DXS101 locus has shown no recombinations with XLA in the ten informative meioses investigated so far. The DXS101 sequence, recognised by the cX52.5 plasmid, is moderately repeated in
Using allelism tests, two diuron (DIU1, DIU2), one funiculosin (FUN1), and two antimycin (ANA1, ANA2) resistance loci are resolved into two mitochondrial drug-resistant genetic loci. DIU1 is alelic to ANA2 and FUN1. DIU2 is allelic to ANA1.
