Genetics of Mental Retardation

The study of individual MR-related genes is hindered by the rarity of large enough kindreds for linkage analysis and by the fact that chromosomal aberrations are either rare (e.g., translocations) or rarely diagnosed (e.g., microdeletions).

Chapter 10 Polygenic Inheritance
... In many multifactorial diseases the two sexes have different probabilities of being affected. For example, pyloric stenosis occurs in about 1/200 newborn males but only in about 1/1000 newborn females. This means that there is a double threshold, one for females and one for males, with the female th ...
