Heterozygosis deficit of polymorphic markers linked to the β-globin gene cluster region in the Iranian population
Objective(s): Iran is considered as one of the high-prevalence areas for β-thalassemia with a rate of about 10% carrier frequency. Molecular diagnosis of the disease is performed both by direct sequencing and indirectly by the use of polymorphic markers present in the beta globin gene cluster. Howev...
