Abstract excerpt

The distribution of a nucleotide polymorphism in intron 2 of the beta-globin gene (IVS-2 nt 666 C > T was examined in populations in southern Germany and Cameroon. The allelic frequencies were 0.86 for T and 0.14 for C in southern Germany and 0.87 for T and 0.13 for C in Cameroon, respectively.
