Serogenetic Variation Among Three Endogamous Groups Of Shimla Hills

Ravi Kiran Sharma

Abstract :

 The distribution of serological traits viz. ABO and Rh(D) blood group among three endogamous groups viz. Brahmin, Rajput and Harijan of Shimla Hills exhibit homogeneous distribution. For each endogamous group 200 unrelated individuals in age group of 15–60 years were randomly sampled by conventional slide agglutination method, using standard technique of Weiner and Lourie. The frequency of A allele ranges from 0.194 to 0.243, that of B allele varies from 0.158 to 0.252 and O allele ranges from 0.538 to 0.648. The frequency of d allele varies from 0.173 to 0.265 and that of D allele ranged from 0.735 to 0.827. The present range of frequency of traits falls within the range of other populations of Northwest India.
