Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is a potentially powerful tool for the localization of disease genes for complex disorders. Most prior studies of the relationship between genetic distance and LD have examined only very short distances, focusing on the role of LD in fine-mapping and positional cloning. W
Bf allele frequencies in a material of 172 unrelated Norwegians are given. Bf/HLA linkage relations in 49 informative matings with 178 children, and Bf/HLA association data of a material of 212 Bf-HLA haplotypes are presented. Of 171 informative meioses, there were no Bf-HLA-B recombinations, while
Previous studies have indicated possible linkage of schizophrenia with chromosome 6p21-24. In an attempt to replicate these findings, we studied the linkage of schizophrenia with nine markers on chromosome 6p21-24 in 39 Taiwanese schizophrenic nuclear families with at least two affected siblings. Tw
