title: Serological and biochemical genetic variation among three subpopulations of Naikpod tribe of Andhra Pradesh, India.
abstract: A total of 353 blood specimens belonging to three subpopulations of Naikpod tribe of Andhra Pradesh, India, were tested for 12 serological and biochemical marker systems: ABO and Rh blood groups, ESD, SOD1, LDH, MDH1 red cell enzymes, HB and TF, HP, CP, ALB plasma proteins. The results were compared among the three groups by chi-square analysis and they revealed no significant differences among them with the exception of TF system. In addition an attempt was made to compare the observed gene frequencies with those reported for other populations from the Indian subcontinent.
