AbstractThe present investigation was planned on three endogamous groups of Haryana viz. Bishnoi, Sunar and Kumhar, and the distribution of serological traits like ABO and Rh (D) blood groups was determined. In the ABO blood group system the frequency of A allele ranged from 0.09-0.24, that of B allele ranged from 0.24- .40 and of O allele from 0.36-0.67. In Rh(D) blood group system the frequency of d allele ranged from 0.26-0.35 while the frequency of D allele varied from 0.65-0.74. The frequency range of traits studied conformed to the range of other populations of North West India studied earlier.
