Compound heterozygosity at two different loci in hereditary hearing loss. (a) Autosomal recessive hearing loss due to mutations in the gene connexin 26. (b) Autosomal recessive hearing loss due to deletions in the gene connexin 30. (c) Compound heterozygosity for a connexin 26 mutation and a connexin 30 deletion also produces hearing loss. This could be termed "digenic" inheritance. Source: Atypical Modes of Inheritance, Medical Genetics: An Integrated Approach Citation: Schaefer G, Thompson, Jr. JN.
