title: Transferrin and albumin polymorphisms in buffaloes from Brazil.
abstract: Starch gel electrophoresis disclosed six transferrin phenotypes, explainable by three alleles (TF A, TF D, TF E), and three albumin phenotypes, determined by two alleles (ALB A, ALB B). Their prevalences suggest that the Brazilian populations have admixed river and swamp buffalo ancestry, the frequency of ALB A being much higher than those found in other regions.
