[Retrospective estimation of the frequency of heterozygous beta-thalassemia in the Crimean Tartar population. Formulation of the problem. Estimation of the gametic contribution to a mixed population from frequencies of the ABO blood group genes].

Abstract excerpt

Polymorphism of the beta-thalassemia gene frequency in non-indigenous populations of Central Asia, especially Crimean Tartars, is often explained by inter-ethnic marriages. The frequencies of these marriages, however, are not sufficient to produce the observed gene frequencies. Because of this, an estimation of the extent of Uzbek gametic contribution to the ethnic group of Crimean Tartar origin was conducted...
