✦ Synopsis


The newly described genetic polymorphism of glyoxalase I (GLO) is studied in seven ethnically defined Negroid samples from South Africa (total: n = 843). The allele frequencies between the different Negroid samples studied vary only marginally. However, the allele frequency of GLO1 for the South African Negroid samples combined (i.e., p = 0.259), is highly significantly lower than that for Caucasoid samples.

## Abstract Variation in number of presacral vertebrae (PSV) was examined in 462 vertebral columns in four populations drawn from tribal groups of Southern African Negroes. The total incidence of numerical variants (23 PSV and 25 PSV) was 19% in males and 12.1% in females. Males have a higher frequ

Properdin factor B phenotypes were determined in 7 Bantu speaking Negroid populations, 1 Indian, and 1 Colored population of South Africa in a total of 1258 individuals. In the Negroid populations allele frequencies were: BfF 0.655, BfS 0.282, BfRARE 0.063, in the Indian population: BfF 0.322, BfS 0
