  • Blood Relations

    Eric Sunderland, A E MourantARTICLEMan1984Citada por: 10

    The distribution of blood groups among the peoples of the world provides a useful system of human classification. In this book the author, a well-known geneticist, explains the blood group system: the theoretical basis of blood group studies; how these studies have helped to classify the peoples of each continent, and trace their movements and mixing; and how natural selection has helped to determine the picture we now see. The text is illustrate…

  • ABH secretion and natural selection

    Open AccessA E MourantARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1982

    The secretor gene, which determines secretion of the ABH blood group antigens into saliva and other fluids, has widely varying frequencies in different healthy populations. Its frequency in patients suffering from certain diseases also differs from that in healthy persons. These observations suggest that frequencies of the gene are to some extent the results of natural selection. One means of selection is through haemolytic disease of the newborn…

  • The blood groups and other hereditary blood factors of the Icelanders

    Open AccessD Tills, A Warlow et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1982

    Bjarnason, Bjarnason, Edwards, Fridriksson, Magnusson, Mourant and Tills (1973) published preliminary data on a study of Iceland. The present paper gives the complete data of the study and extends the sample size for most of the genetic systems to over 1500 individuals, approximately 1/130 of the population. The sample was divided into seven subpopulations and these were compared using a genetic distance matrix. Considerable internal variation wa…

  • Genetic studies of the population of the Isle of Man

    Open AccessR J Mitchell, D Tills et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1982

    A sample of the Isle of Man population was tested for the following red cell antigens, serum proteins and red cell enzymes: ABH; MNSs He; Cc CwD Du Ee Ce; K k Kpa Kpb; Lua; P1; Fya Fyb; haptoglobin; transferrin; Ag; acid phosphatase; phosphoglucomutase; adenylate kinase; esterase D; adenosine deaminase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. The study comprised 219 blood donors, 338 secondary school children and 116 females attending the only anten…

  • Genetic surveys from the Central, Morobe and Northern Districts, Papua New Guinea

    Open AccessP B Booth, A E Mourant et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1981

    The results of blood group surveys on a number of linguistic groups inhabiting contiguous areas within the Goilala sub-district of the Central District, the southern part of the Morobe District and the Northern District are reported. Altogether about 1900 subjects were tested, but the extent of testing varied. Red cell enzyme and serum protein systems were also investigated in two groups. Similarities and dissimilarities of blood group distributi…

  • Linkage equilibrium and disequilibrium in human population studies

    Open AccessA E MourantARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1980

    It is suggested that in such genetic systems as HLA, characterized by sets of alleles at several closely linked loci, the existence of a state of linkage disequilibrium in a population indicates that this population is the result of recent hybridization between two or more populations, which may previously each have been in a state of equilibrium. Disequilibrium may, however, be modified by natural selection and by genetic drift. Examples of dise…

  • Blood groups of the Irish

    Open AccessD Tills, P Teesdale et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1977

    Some 1800 blood donors from the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland have been tested for the antigens A A1 B H; M N Ss Henshaw; C c Cw D Du E e Ce; Wra; P1; Lua; K k Kpa; Fya Fyb; and Rd (Radin). The results are compared with those already available for Ireland and an attempt is made to interpret them in terms of populations movements. With the exception of the high O frequency in the West, believed to represent the remnants of Mesolithic pe…

  • The blood groups and other heriditary blood factors of Yemenite and Kurdish Jews

    Open AccessD Tills, A Warlow et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1977

    Blood specimens collected fro Yemenite and Kurdish Jews living in Israel were tested for 11 blood group systems 5 plasma protein systems and 9 systems of red-cell enzymes. The results of these tests were combined with those of tests on other Yemenite and Kurdish Jews, reported by Godber et al. (1973), the total data sorted according to the place of origin of the subjects or their parents in the Yemen Arab Republic and Kurdistan respectively. Gene…

  • The blood groups, serum groups, red-cell isoenzymes and haemoglobins of the Sandawe and Nyaturu of Tanzania

    Open AccessM J Godber, M Godber et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1976

    Blood specimens from members of the click-speaking Sandawe tribe of Tanzania and of the adjacent Bantu-speaking Nyaturu tribe have been tested for antigens of 11 blood group systems, for variants of 3 plasma-protein systems and 9 red-cell-enzyme systems, for haemoglobin variants. The results are tabulated and gene frequencies computed. For most systems, the frequencies in the two tribes are similar to one another and, in so far as data are availa…

  • New Evidence for a Late Introduction of Malaria into the New World [and Comments and Reply]

    Corinne Shear Wood, J L Angel et al.ARTICLECurrent Anthropology1975Citada por: 5Referências: 2

    New evidence is offered to strengthen the case for a post-Conquest introduction of malaria into the New World. An investigation of human physiological factors influencing host selection by malaria vectors revealed a strong preference by Anopheles gambiae for human hosts with blood-group O. The unique, overwhelming group-O frequency present among indigenous American populations is seen as a result of mother-child ABO incompatibility effects operat…

  • The blood groups and haemoglobins of the Kunama and Baria of Eritrea, Ethiopia

    Open AccessA E Mourant, Ada C Kopec et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1974

    The Kunama and Baria tribes inhabit north-west Eritrea, Ethiopia, and are both of somewhat negroid appearance. Blood samples were tested for blood groups of seven systems, for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency and for abnormal haemoglobins. Their blood groups show them to be of mixed Caucasoid-Negroid origin with rather more negroid marker genes than most of the surrounding populations. Abnormal haemoglobins were absent but males of bo…

  • The inherited blood factors of the inhabitants of Southern Arabia

    Open AccessAlain J Marengo-Rowe, K Aviet et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1974

    Blood specimens were taken from numerous population groups from southern Arabia, south of the borders of Yemen and Saudi Arabia, and tested for blood group antigens of nine systems, haptoglobins, transferrins and red-cell enzymes of six systems. In blood group frequencies the south Arabians resemble the Saudi Arabians in having high frequencies of O, of M and MS, and moderately high frequencies of the African marker genes. The Dia Mongoloid marke…

    Leveque (I955) and Mechali et al. (i957) have drawn attention to the unusual blood group frequencies of the Jews of the Tafilalet oases south of the Atlas mountains in Morocco, and especially to their extremely high frequency of blood group B. It was thought that this remarkable population merited further examination and therefore, with the cordial co-operation of Dr Leveque, the Cambridge University Expedition to Northern Africa in I962 visited …
