Figure 1 Pedigrees and chromosome 2q24 haplotypes in eight Italian families affected with BFIC. Families 1–4 are linked, whereas families 5–8 are unlinked. Blackened symbols indicate affected subjects, and unblackened symbols indicate individuals with no history of seizures. Question marks (?) within genetic symbols indicate undetermined status. Black vertical bars represent segregation of the disease chromosome within linked families. Hatched bars indicate the presence of a potential disease chromosome in absence of parental genotypes. In individual III-1 of family 6, haplotypes (in brackets) were arbitrarily assigned because of the lack of parental information. Families 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are, respectively, families 7, 5, 4, 6, and 2 in the Gennaro et al. (1999) report.
