Summary A further small family in which there is linkage between the ABO blood group and nail‐patella loci is reported, the gene controlling the skeletal condition being linked in coupling with that determining the A 1 blood group. One cross‐over is reported among the eight individuals who might have inherited the condition. We are grateful to Dr E. T. Baker‐Bates for introducing his patient, the propositus, to us.
