Summary The probabilities with which the two members of a couple share no, one or two antigens on each of two loci in ABO‐like systems are derived. As an example, expected values concerning the HLA‐A, B system are compared with observed frequencies in a material of 690 couples. A FORTRAN program for calculation of the gene‐sharing probabilities is available.
