Question -   I am looking for a list of dominant and recessive genes for humans.
---------------------------------------
OMIM (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man), at www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/omim,
is "THE" comprehensive catalog of human traits caused by single genes,
whether they are dominant or recessive. Many thousands of genes are listed,
along with scientific references about them, their chromosomal location and
other details. The list is constantly expanded as new discoveries are made.
