Abstract
Thirty-seven blood samples were analyzed for linkage from members of a single family with an anterior segment mesenchymal dysgenesis (ASMD1) with variable expressivity affecting members of at least six generations. Maximum-likelihood analysis for linkage between ASMD1 and 14 biochemical and serological markers in the family showed a probable linkage between ASMD1 and the MNS blood group on the long arm of chromosome 4 (Z = 2.36 at a recombination fraction of .09).
