Abstract
Evidence for close genetic linkage between the loci for serum albumin (ALB) and vitamin D binding protein (GC) in sheep is presented. No rec ombinants were found in 28 informative offspring of a single ram famil y. The recombination frequency between the two loci was estimated to b e in the range of 0 to 10%. No sign of linkage was observed between th e ALB-GC complex and transferrin.
