Abstract
Three Han subpopulations, Gansu, Henan, and Inner Mongolia were examined for red cell blood group systems, including ABO, Rh, MNSs, Kidd, Duffy, Diego, and Xg. There was no MS type in Gansu, no SS type in Henan and no MNS and NS types in Inner Mongolia, no CCDE- and CcDEE types in Henan, and no ccDee type in Inner Mongolia. The gene frequencies of S (0.0975) and P1 (0.2584) as well as the MS haplotype frequency (0.0629) in Gansu were the highest, while the Di(a) gene frequency (0.0151) in Henan was the lowest among the subpopulations of Han nationality studied so far. The Xg(a) gene frequency in Henan was 0.6055, the highest value observed in China. The genetic distances and phylogenetic tree of eight Han subpopulations showed that the Han in Henan were closest to the Han in Inner Mongolia, and that the Han in Fujian were closest to the Han in Guizhou among others.
