Abstract
Studies were carried out on the frequencies of the Rh and Kidd blood groups as well as of the Wra, Swa, Vel, and I antigens among residents in Tokyo. It has been found that of the Rh group the frequency of cde chromosomes is much lower than among English or American Whites, while the frequency of Cde chromosomes is somewhat higher than among the latter. Our study of the Kidd groups has shown that the frequency of the Jka factor among the Japanese is lower than that among the English. Our examination has revealed no case of Vel negative, I negative, nor of Wra and Swa positive.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
