title: [Transferrin types in the Dama (Southwest Africa)].
abstract: The transferrin type of 238 Dama serums was determined and an estimate made of the gene frequencies. Using the SANGHVI method, the distribution of the transferrin types of the Dama was compared with 53 African populations south of the Sahara. The comparison demonstrates the great dissimilarity of the Dama to the Khoisanide tribes and confirms--at least in part--the results of polysymptomatic affinity comparisons of the Dama with other African populations.
