Abstract

Linkage analysis of Lu and Se and 31 other loci indicate that Lu:Se are not closely linked to ABO, ACP1, Co, Do, Est.D,Fy, GC, Gm, GLO:HLA, GPT, Inv, Jk,K,MN,P,PGD,PGM1, Rh,Sc, UMPK OR Yt. Lod scores for 18 families informative for Lu:Se gave no evidence for sex differentiation in recombination fraction: theta for males was 0.07, and for females, .08.
