We report genome-wide linkage results using model-free linkage analysis (Allegro) of 358 autosomal microsatellites in 260 new inflammatory bowel disease-affected relative pairs from 139 Caucasian families, including 108 Crohn's disease-affected relative pairs and 72 ulcerative colitis-affected relative pairs. Our results provide confirmatory evidence for linkage between the IBD2 locus and the inflammatory bowel...
