Evidence for balancing of KM, but not GM, alleles by heterotic advantage in South Amerinds.

Human genetics - 1 Aug 1997

Black F L, Pandey J P

Abstract excerpt

Two KM alleles occur in 1075 South Amerinds of 14 tribes in approximately balanced and uniform frequency. However, the number of heterozygotes is 12.7% greater than expected by frequency analysis and 16.5% greater by segregation analysis. This excess is evident in children 0-4 years of age and may reflect either prenatal or early childhood selection. The frequencies of GM haplotypes were different, and quite...
