title: The use of linked DNA polymorphisms for genotype prediction in families with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
abstract: Two DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms show genetic linkage to the Duchenne muscular dystrophy locus on the short arm of the X chromosome. Examples are given of families in which these polymorphisms can be used in the prediction of genotype for this disorder.
