title: Demonstration of the Rhesus haplotype CdE (r-y) in the genotype of 48 subjects from 8 families. Genotype CdE/CdE (r-yr-y) in 2 members of the same family.
abstract: Forty-eight individuals heterozygous for CdE (R-Y) haplotype were identified in the pedigrees of 8 kindreds containing 128 members. Two homozygotes CdE/CdE (r-yr-y) were found in a large inbred kindred. Our study among French blood donors of the Seine-Maritime region demonstrated that about one of two individuals possessing the Rhesus phenotype CcdEd (rh'rh') carried the CdE (r-y) haplotype.
