title: [Relationship between chromosomal Q-polymorphism and variability of morphophysiologic characters in man].
abstract: To analyse ontogenic and adaptive significance of the chromosomal Q-polymorphism, the relationship between individual heterozygosity for 12 chromosomal Q-polymorphic bands and variability of 2 anthropometric (weight and stature) and 2 physiological (systolic and diastolic blood pressure) adaptively important traits have been studied in two ethnically different populations, living in different ecological conditions. For most of the studied traits, nonsignificant relationships between chromosomal Q-polymorphic band heterozygosity and morphophysiological variables have been found. Similar results have been obtained for correlations between the mean number of Q-bands on genome and variability of quantitative traits. These results suggest that the chromosomal Q-polymorphism is selectively neutral in human postnatal ontogenesis.
