    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-linked_recessive_inheritance

    X-linked recessive inheritance. X-linked recessive inheritance is a mode of inheritance in which a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome causes the phenotype to be always expressed in males (who are necessarily hemizygous for the gene mutation because they have one X and one Y chromosome) and in females who are homozygous for the gene mutation, see zygosity.

  4. X-linked genetic disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-linked_genetic_disease

    X-linked recessive diseases are more frequently encountered than dominant ones and predominantly affect males, with Red-green colour blindness having the highest prevalence among all. Genetic screening including carrier screening , prenatal screening and newborn screening could be done on individuals for early detection of genetic defects.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-linked_intellectual...

    X-linked intellectual disability refers to medical disorders associated with X-linked recessive inheritance that result in intellectual disability. As with most X-linked disorders, males are more heavily affected than females. [1] Females with one affected X chromosome and one normal X chromosome tend to have milder symptoms.

  7. Genetic disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_disorder

    X-linked recessive conditions are also caused by mutations in genes on the X chromosome. Males are much more frequently affected than females, because they only have the one X chromosome necessary for the condition to present. The chance of passing on the disorder differs between men and women.

  9. X-linked dominant inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-linked_dominant_inheritance

    X-linked dominant inheritance, sometimes referred to as X-linked dominance, is a mode of genetic inheritance by which a dominant gene is carried on the X chromosome. As an inheritance pattern, it is less common than the X-linked recessive type.
