  This paper presents various aspects of Pedigree Analysis through a review of a study of a Newfoundland genetic isolate. This study has evolved over a number of years and involved many researchers. The population came to attention due to a greatly enhanced incidence of a variety of lymphoreticular malignancies. Genetic analysis shows clearly that there are (at least) two groups of traits. Whereas the distribution of the leukaemia and lymphosarcoma…

  Data collected in a study of ATIII deficiency also suggested familial variability of blood clotting times amongst genotypically normal individuals. A study of this variability under a variety of models demonstrates a clear age effect and within sibship similarity. There is also a clear parental effect, which could be either environmental or genetic. Even when parental effects are taken into account there remains some excess similarity between sib…

  Gene extinction probabilities over the ancestral genealogy of Tristan da Cunha are analysed, to determine the probability distributions of numbers of surviving distinct founder genes. Autosomal, X-linked and Y-linked genes are considered, and also the bivariate distributions of genes originating in males and in females. One founder group shows a greater variety of surviving genes than another, although there is little difference in their total ge…

  Open Access•P J Solomon, E A Thompson et al.•ARTICLE•Annals of Human Biology•1983

  Although height is widely cited as the classic polygenic trait, there have been few large-scale studies of its inheritance since that of Pearson and Lee 80 years ago (Pearson and Lee 1903). Values of heritability derived in many standard genetics texts are based on those data. The data of Rissanen and Nikkila (1977) on 2869 individuals in 392 three-generation families provide an opportunity to make comparisons in a contemporary European populatio…

  When the Visigoths crossed the Danube in 376 and entered the Roman provinces, were they Christian or pagan?
