The population genetics of the haemoglobinopathies.

Bailliere's clinical haematology - 1 Mar 1998

Flint J, Harding R M, Boyce A J, Clegg J B

Abstract excerpt

The haemoglobinopathies are the commonest single-gene disorders known, almost certainly because of the protection they provide against malaria, as attested by a number of observations. The geographical distributions of malaria and haemoglobinopathies largely overlap, and microepidemiological surveys confirm the close relationship between them. For two of the commonest disorders, haemoglobin S and...
