Genetic differentiation of Jordanian Moslems and Christians.
Two samples representing the Moslem and Christian communities of Jordan were examined for the polymorphic serum proteins AHSG, BF, FXIIIB, GC, HP, PI, PLG, and TF. The results revealed similar allele distributions, and low interpopulation differentiation (GST = 0.0004) between the two communities. The low HP*1S (< 0.12) allele frequencies and the comparatively high PLG*B (> 0.40) and BF*S.07 (approximately equal to 0.05) frequencies are characteristic of the populations of this region.
