ANALYSIS OF MORPHOGENETIC TRAITS AMONG VARIOUS ENDOGAMOUS HUMAN POPULATION GROUPS
Birla, S. , Sinha, K. K.
Abstract :
Genetic variation in human is caused by many factors such as natural selection, migration, temporal variation, gene flow and genetic drift. Among the various communities of Munger district in particular the ‘Saundik Vaishya’ community claim our attention. The community has been preferred owing to the existence of various endogamous groups within it. These groups are basically business oriented and have played important role in the social uplift of the district. A variety of morphogenetic traits are observed among the population in the district. It is intended to study nine different traits in order to determine the frequency of the phenotype. Some characters though, dominant were observed to be present in less number of people in the sample, such as dimples, manus mid phalangeal hair, tongue rolling and tongue folding. The frequency distribution of various traits among the studied population shows homogenous distribution. In future, it would be interesting to study whether or not the inheritance of these traits is dependent on one another. Overall, the frequencies of these traits were according to Indian trends.
