Inheritance and linkage data for an unusual combination of genes (at the LKE, PI and C6 loci) in a single large sibship

Abstract
Analysis of the groups of a large sibship showed that the locus for the blood group LKE is not closely linked to the loci for MNS, Rh, HLA, Pi, Gm and C6 and is genetically independent of the loci for P1, K, Xg, Au, secretor, and C3. The locus for the Auberger (Au) blood group was shown to be genetically independent of the locus for the blood group Kell and of the loci for C3, C6, Gc, HLA, Pi and Gm groups.
