Additionally, the area on chromosome 12 that was identified in the present linkage analyses for the “FIRST FIVE” SRE phenotype was also found previously in a genome scan for a the severity of alcohol dependence drinking symptomatology phenotype (Ehlers et al., 2004b) and also an antisocial personality disorder/conduct disorder phenotype in this Indian population (Ehlers et al., 2008a). A region near this site was also identified in a genome scan in the Irish Affected Sib Pair Study for a maximum drinking phenotype (Kuo et al., 2006).
