Linkage and chromosomal studies in congenital cataract.
The methods used in linkage and chromosomal studies in congenital cataract are described. These are: classical pedigree analysis with the detection of recombinants among the offspring of informative matings, and somatic cell hybridization. The recently developed methods using recombinant DNA techniques are briefly mentioned.
