[Hemogenetic studies of the Cologne political district (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany)].
In two population samples from the administrative area of Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany (Eschweiler/Stolberg, B frequencies > 0.0800; Hürtgenwald/Inden/Langerwehe, B frequencies < 0.0800), 26 hemogenetic systems had been studied. The resulting differences of allele and haplotype frequencies, resp., are significant. These differences are interpreted as a result of the migration from North-East Europe to North Rhine-Westphalia in the last 120 years and the selective geographic distribution of the migrants in the industrial and urbanized areas.
