Abstract excerpt
PGM1 subtypes and ESD phenotypes of 600 mothers and their respective newborn infants residing in the northern part of the island of Tasmania were examined. The allele frequencies of PGM1 in the mothers were 1+ = 0.6525, 1- = 0.1250, 2+ = 0.1758 and 2- = 0.0467, and in the newborns were 1+ = 0.6675, 1- = 0.1275, 2+ = 0.01600 and 2- = 0.0450. Both samples were found to exhibit Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium conditions...
