In this pedigree II 1 is affected with an autosomal recessive disorder. The disease status for II 2, II 3 and II 4 is unknown. A and B represent alleles at a locus which is tightly linked to the disease locus with recombination fraction of 0. On the basis of the linked markers II 2 can be told that:

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In this pedigree II 3 and III 1 are affected with an X-linked recessive disorder which is tightly linked to a marker locus with alleles A and B, with a recombination fraction of 0 between the disease and marker loci. Analysis of the linked marker results indicates that the disease must be segregating with:
