Question

In humans, a rare dominant disorder known as nail-patella syndrome
causes abnormalities in the fingernails, toenails, and kneecaps.
Researchers have examined family pedigrees with regard to this
disorder and have also examined the blood types of individuals
within each pedigree. (A description of blood genotypes is found
in Chapter 4.) In the following pedigree, individuals affected with
nail-patella disorder are shown with filled symbols. The genotype
of each individual with regard to ABO blood type is also shown.
Does this pedigree suggest any linkage between the gene that
causes nail-patella syndrome and the gene that causes blood type?
