title: The AcP polymorphism frequencies in the Mbugu and Sango of Central Africa. (Correlations between the Pr allele frequencies and some climatic factors in Africa).
abstract: This paper reports AcP frequencies in the Mbugu and Sango of Central Africa. Among 39 sub-Saharan populations, correlations between Pr allele frequencies and latitude, humidity and altitude indicate that AcP frequencies are significantly correlated with humidity, temperature and altitude. The first-order correlations (constant humidity) diminish by approximately 70% relative to the zero-order correlation.
