I believe this is more logically termed a mode of inheritance, with modes of inheritance being used to describe genetic disorders, so I've changed it. I've also made the intro clearer and more concise (in my opinion). Discuss on my talk page if there are problems. --nkayesmith 07:39, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This page makes several references to "gender," but wouldn't "sex" be a more appropriate word to use in this purely biological discussion? 128.2.97.59 (talk) 20:08, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Since autism is genetic, is it possible for it to be x-linked dominant? I think this depends on whether your parents have it or not & traits for your spouse. --Evope (talk) 06:25, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with "Sex linkage"

It has been proposed multiple times that the topics pertaining to "Sex linkage", including X-linked dominant inheritance, X-linked recessive inheritance, and X-linked genetic diseases. Currently, some of these pages have their own main pages, as well as less developed sections under the "Sex linkage" page, some have only their own main page. This editor is proposing this merger of inter-related topics. ThatGeneticist (talk) 16:33, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
