Comparison of erythrocyte markers gene frequencies in different populations
Year: 1991
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: A comparison of erythrocyte markers (ABO, Rh system) gene frequencies was done by bar code diagrams in populations of variable ethnic origin. The results from missions for the development in Far East Asia (China, Indochina, New Guinea) were compared to well known gene frequencies of the populations living in other regions: inhabitants of the islands of the Pacific ocean, Europeans of New Zealand and Western Europe (France), Europeans of North America, Ameridans of Peru and Bolivia, Somalians of Africa. Polymorphism was observed in immense country very peopled, monomorphism was found in small and isolated region but polymorphism existed in tribes living in very isolated islands.
