Mean frequencies of the Swedish blood group genes of the A1A2BO, MN, P and Rh(CcDE) systems are given with special regard to the Cw and Du factors. The frequencies are calculated from materials of non-related, adult persons, mothers and alleged fathers in paternity cases, which materials must be regarded as free from any clinical or other influencing blood group selection.

Riassunto

RIASSUNTO

Sono riportate le frequenze medie in Svezia dei geni dei gruppi sanguigni dei sistemi A1A2BO, MN, P ed Rh (CcDE) con particolare riguardo per i fattori Cw e Du. Le frequenze vengono calcolate in base a materiali di persone adulte non consanguinee, madri e supposti padri in casi di discussa paternità, materiali che vanno considerati esenti da qualsiasi selezione clinica o che comunque influenzi i gruppi sanguigni.

Résumé

RÉSUMÉ

L'Auteur rapporte les fréquences moyennes en Suède des gènes des groupes sanguins des systèmes A1A2BO, MN, P et Rh (CcDE), avec regard spécial aux facteurs Cw e Du. Les fréquences sont calculées sur la base de matériels composés de personnes adultes non-consanguines, (mères et pères en cas de parentage disputé), matériels que l'on peut considérer non-sélectionnés par aucun facteur clinique ou autre qui puisse influencer les groupes sanguins.

Zusammenfassung

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG

Es werden die Durchschnittshäufigkeiten der Gene der Blutgruppensysteme A1A2BO, MN, P und Rh (CcDE) in Schweden aufgeführt unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Faktoren Cw und Du. Die Häufigkeiten wurden auf Grund eines Materials nicht blutsverwandter erwachsener Personen berechnet, d.h. Mütter und vermutliche Väter bei umstrittenen Vaterschaftsfällen; es handelt sich also um ein Material, das jegliche klinische oder andere die Blutgruppen beeinflussende Auslese ausschliesst.
