[Genetic Diversity of Rh Haplotypes among Chinese Populations].

In the statistic study of Rh blood group system, whole Chinese data were re-calculated for haplotype frequency and linkage ratio, according to Counting Method. All Chinese majority populations and minority populations were divided into different groups, and variety genetic calculations on their gene diversity and gene differentiation were also calculated. The results shown obvious genetic differences between and among Southern and Northern Chinese populations. UPGMA phylogenetic dendrograms was plotted and the tree demonstrated that the genetic relationship among 68 Chinese populations are well corresponded with their geographical and linguistic distribution.
