Hb F and F cell values in normal adults vary considerably with a continuous distribution that is substantially skewed to the right implicating a polygenic influence. The high values of Hb F and F cells are transmitted in the condition referred to as heterocellular hereditary persistence fetal hemoglobin which should be regarded as a multifactorial quantitative trait, quite distinct from the classical pancellular...
