  • Title: A study on blood groups and serum proteins in Bengalee populations of Calcutta, India.
    Author: Bandyopadhyay AR.
    Journal: Anthropol Anz; 1994 Sep; 52(3):215-9. PubMed ID: 7993067.
    Abstract:
    The genetic polymorphisms of two blood groups (A1A2B0, Rh-D) and two serum proteins (HP, TF) were investigated in five endogamous caste groups of Bengalee Hindu population living in Calcutta. The distribution of A1A2B0 and Rh-D blood groups in all the caste groups showed an oriental pattern with high B and Rh-D+ frequencies, while for the haptoglobins a very low frequency of HP*1 was seen in all the caste groups, except the Vaidya. For transferrin types the absolute predominancy of TF*C in all the caste groups was noted.
