Abstract
The α-thalassaemias are group of inherited anaemias. Their severity is known to increase with the number of α-globin genes deleted. Employing different types of restriction enzymes, we found that α-thalassaemia-2 are more common than held previously. On the basis of our results we also anticipate that the haplotype αααanti 3·7/ occurs at a higher frequency.Keywords
