Frequencies of salivary genetic marker systems in Caucasians with an emphasis on Pm and Ph systems.
Salivary genetic marker systems, especially the Pm and Ph systems, were studied in Caucasians. The gene frequencies obtained were, Pm+ = 0.14 and Pm- = 0.86. A variant polymorphic protein (Ph) present in the Japanese population was not observed in Caucasians.
