Pages like this are pretty incomprehensible to outsider s who might want to use them- for example me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.102.72.107 (talk) 02:39, 27 March 2008 (UTC) Boulanouar (talk) 14:45, 4 April 2009 (UTC)Some phrases are neither scientific neither adressed for large public. For example: "each parent can be summarized by the transmitted and the non-transmitted allele" What does it mean when we see from the table that M1 could be both transmitted and non-transmitted.Reply

heterozygous parents? edit

I think the phrase "heterozygous parents" could be misleading as it makes one think of parents who are heterozygous themselves, while actually they could also be homozygous for different alleles. as far as I understand, those that matter are the counts of heterozygous offspring, not parents. if that's the case, an easy fix would be to replace the word "parents" with "offspring" in every occurrence of the phrase "heterozygous parents".
