Abstract
A putative association of schizophrenia with a Msc I restriction fragment l ength polymorphism at the dopamine D3 receptor gene locus (DRD3) was tested among Indian families, using haplotype relative risk analysis and the tran smission disequilibrium test (n=66 families and 58 sets of transmissions, r espectively). A significant association either with homozygosity or with al lele 1 at the biallelic polymporphism could not be detected. An. J. Med. Ge net. (Neuropsychiatr. Grenet.) 88:298-300, 1999.
