Abstract :
Non-traditional/non-classical/non-Mendelian patterns of inheritance refer to different modes of transmission of genetic diseases that are not caused by single mutant genes. These diseases include a wide variety of genetically-determined disorders, e.g., polygenic diseases/chromosomal aberrations/ mitochondrial disorders and multifactorial diseases.
