On the importance of being heterozygote -- Effects of Rh-genotype on the physical and mental health of a non-clinical population

2024-01-30

Abstract excerpt

Human populations, especially European, are polymorphic in the RHD gene. A significant fraction of their members carries two copies of a mutated (deleted) allele, which results in their Rh-negative blood type. Theoretically, this polymorphism should be unstable. Carriers of the less frequent allele are penalized by reduced fertility because of the immunization of Rh-negative mothers by their Rh-positive babies, wh...
