Gene frequencies of some polymorphic loci in the isolate of Zeri (Tuscany, Italy).
Gene frequencies of three blood group antigens, six erythrocyte enzymes and the secretor status have been estimated in a sample of a small and isolated population (about 2000 inhabitants) from the Northern Appennines (municipality of Zeri). A comparison with genetic data from literature reveals the peculiarity of the population of Zeri with respect to its sub-region (Lunigiana) and shows a high degree of genetic variation compared to other Tuscan populations (Garfagnana and Versilia).
