In this pedigree I 1 and II 2 have Becker muscular dystrophy which shows X-linked recessive inheritance. III 2 has oculocutaneous albinism which shows autosomal recessive inheritance with an incidence in the general population of 1 in 10 000. The disease status for both Becker muscular dystrophy and oculocutaneous albinism is unknown for IV 1 and IV 2.
What is the probability that III 3 is a carrier of oculocutaneous albinism?
