Summary
A linkage study of six families with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDL) has been performed. A linkage to site DXS41 (\(\hat \theta \)=0.08; ž=3.07) and DXS92 (\(\hat \theta \)=0.05; ž=2.95) has been established. We propose, that the SEDL locus lies on the distal part of the short arm of the X chromosome.
