Asthma is a complex genetic disorder in which the mode of inheritance is not known. Many
segregation studies suggest that a major gene could be involved in asthma, but until now …

It has been long recognised that asthma and related phenoypes have an important hereditary
nature, in which inheritance does not follow the classical Mendelian patterns and the exact …
