  8. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex, chronic inflammatory disease implicated to have several plausible candidate loci; however, these may not account for all the genetic variations underlying RA. Common dis...

  9. Transmission-ratio distortion (TRD) is a phenomenon in which the segregation of alleles does not obey Mendel's laws. As a simple example, a recessive locus that results in fetal lethality will result in live-b...
