## Abstract Association studies depend on linkage disequilibrium (LD) between a causative mutation and linked marker loci. Selecting markers that give the best chance of showing useful levels of LD with the causative mutation will increase the chances of successfully detecting an association. This
A set of nine polymorphic loci defined by DNA probes was studied for linkage with the disease locus in ten families with a history of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and three families with a history of Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). The results confirm DMD and BMD linkage to all marker loci an
