title: [Ecogenetic cause of polymorphism of transferrin (Tf) in various sex and age groups of Russians and Buryats].
abstract: The distribution of transferrin (Tf) suballeles have been studied in Russians and Buriats, in connection with sex-age characters. No directional change in Tf suballele frequencies was obtained for age cohorts of Buriats. The tendency for decrease in the Tf allele frequency was noted in oldest age groups of Russians. The differences between Russians and Buriats were conditioned by differences between female subgroups, with respect to transferrins solely. The frequencies of relatively rare Tf alleles (C3, B, D) were higher in female subgroups, as compared with males.
