Abstract
Linkage analysis of 146 informative families for MN and Ss resulted in an estimate of the recombination frequency greater than previously reported. Our total is 7 recombinant children out of 467 individuals, including 1 confirmed recombinant (re-tested and HLA-compatible) and 6 not verified. The 95% confidence interval of our estimate of recombination is 0.0033–0.0167. Our results are compared with two earlier studies.
