Ecology, Culture and Development. Gaddis and Pangwalas of Himachal Pradesh
The present piper covers two tribes-Gaddis a transhumant group of Bharmour Tehsil. and Pangwalas, a settled group of Pangi Tehsil, District Chamba, Himachal Pradesh: Both of these areas are isolated, therefore they lagged behind In social and economic progress. Planned economic development was adopted as our national policy that after independence. But task of independence the development programmes in tribal areas was must made difficult as thes…
Palmar Dermatoglyphic Creases Among Eleven Population Groups of Himalayas
This paper reports the variation of palmar creases frequencies among the Pangwalas, Transhumant and Settled Gaddis of Himachal Pradesh, Newars of Nepal and Bhutanese of Bhutan. The results of the study are compared within and in between these groups, as well as with other reports available in the literature
Biology of the people of Sikkim, India. 2. Colour blindness, ear lobe attachment, mid-phalangeal hair and behavioural traits
14 population groups of Sikkim (India)--Lepchas (2), Bhutias (2), Sherpas, Tamangs, Gurungs, Mangars, Rais, Limboos/Subbas, Pradhans (Newars), Brahmans, Chhetris, Scheduled Castes--have been studied in regard of the intra- and intergroup variability of colour blindness, ear lobe attachment, mid-phalangeal hair and behavioural traits (tongue folding, hand clapsing, arm folding, leg folding, handedness). Some of these variables show a considerable …
Morphological and metric dental study on Indians
Genetic studies in four tribal populations of the Surat District, Gujarat (India)
Four tribal populations (Chaudhuri, Vasava, Kotwalia and Gamit) of the Surat District in Gujarat (India) have been investigated for the distribution of 22 polymorphic systems of the blood. The main results of this study are as follows: (1) The allele frequencies show considerable heterogeneity among these populations. (2) From the genetic structure analysis it is seen that only a small fraction of the total gene diversity accounts for genetic dif…

Genetic study of five population groups of Lahaul-Spiti and Kulu districts, Himachal Pradesh
In the present study an attempt has been made to study five endogamous groups viz. Bodhs, Swangalas (Hindus) of Lahaul Tehsil of Lahaul-Spiti district, and Brahmans, Rajputs and Kolis of Kulu district of Himachal Pradesh for the frequency distribution of eleven genetic poly morphisms: ABO, MNSs, Rhesus, Kell, Kidd, Duffy, Saliva secretor status; Hp, Tf; AK and ADA. The population groups of the present study have been compared with the reports ava…
Genetic studies of Pangwalas, Transhumant and Settled Gaddis 3. Genetic differentiation processes
The distribution pattern of subcutaneous fat with reference to level of physical activity in adult females
Variations in the age at menarche due to physical exercise and altitude
Variations in age at menarche in India are examined. The data concern 64 athletes 50 women living at high altitudes and 300 women from the plains. (summary in GER) (ANNOTATION)
Transferrin subtypes in four Northwest Indian tribal populations and some remarks on the anthropological value of this new polymorphism
Serum samples from four tribal Populations—Chaudhuri, Kotwalia, Vasava, Gamit—living in Gujarat (Northwest India) were tested for transferrin subtypes. The results are compared with those reported for other Indian populations. Reviewing all the hitherto published Tf subtype data some interestig racial differences in the distribution of gene frequencies emerge. A possible geographical distribution pattern of the variants is explored

Revised regression equations for prediction of fat-free mass of Indian females
Body fat and fat-free mass assessed by densitometric and anthropometric techniques in adult Indian women
Measurements of per cent body fat and lean body mass were made on 50 adult Indian women, 25 to 32 years old, and were correlated with a battery of 50 body measurements taken on the same subjects. Regression equations were developed for predicting per cent body fat and lean body mass from different combinations of body measurements. The best multiple regression equation, incorporating chin and chest skinfold thickness as well as cup-size, resulted…

Body composition of young Indian women
Lung function in highlander bods of Ladakh
A cross‐sectional sample of 221 male Bods, 11 to 19 years, from Leh, Ladakh, was studied to determine some biological responses to the environment. The higher forced vital capacity and increased association between chest measurements and respiratory function as well as increased chest dimensions of the Bods resemble the findings on highland Peruvians. These differences from lowland Bods and Indians may partially be attributable to low oxygen pres…
Growth trends among male bods of Ladakh — a high altitude population
A random sample of 274 native male Bods of Ladakh ranging in age from 11 to 19 years, living in Leh (Ladakh) at mean altitude of 3,514 metres, was studied. The pattern of growth of this sample was compared with the sea level Indians. The results indicate that: The so called adolescent spurt is not well defined among Bod highlanders. Bods grow faster than plain dwelling Indians and are taller and heavier at the age of 19 years. The highlanders exh…
Satellite Association and Structnral Anomalies in Two North Indian Populations-Rajputs and Punjabis
An attempt has been made to study the morphological variability of the human chromosomes in two Indian popnlations-Rajputs and Punjabis with respect to satellite association and the structural anomalies
