  • Quantitative Dermatoglyphic Variation among Five Reddi Populations of Southern Andhra Pradesh

    Open AccessB K Reddy, B K Chandrasekhar ReddyARTICLEThe Anthropologist2006References: 1

    Bilateral finger and palm prints of 1000 Reddi males, 200 each of five endogamous groups namely Pokanati (PNR), Pedakanti (PKR), Panta (PTR), Akuthota(ATR) and Palle (PLR), were studied for eight quantitative dermatoglyphic traits. The finger pattern intensity index (FPII) ranging from 12.74 (PNR) to 13.79 (PTR) shows higher values for right hands of all populations. With regard to mean ridge counts (RCs and SRCs) no clear trend is observed. The …

The order of occurrence of ABO phenotypes is O>B>A. The corresponding gene frequencies are found to be 0.6463 (O); 0.2254 (B) and 0.1282 (A). Rh(-ve) frequency is found to be relatively high (8.5%). Normal colour vision is observed among all the 200 studied. The results…
