  • Title: Variability of the Rh system in a central Pyrenean population (Aran Valley).
    Author: Nogues RM, Aluja MP, Malgosa A, Mas J.
    Journal: Gene Geogr; 1992; 6(1-2):97-108. PubMed ID: 1299320.
    Abstract:
    This work describes the results of a survey on the Rhesus system carried out in the autochthonous population of Aran Valley, a small and rather isolated region on the Northern side of the Central Pyrenees. Also, a comparison is made with other geographically and historically related populations in order to discuss the data in terms of the historical origin of this population. The data obtained shows a good agreement between observed and expected values in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The Aranese population also reveals some peculiarities concerning some haplotypes. The comparison with European and non European Mediterranean populations shows a clear genetic distance from Basque populations, and a relative proximity with presumably Celtic ones.
