Abstract

A biogenetical study of 150 Angami Nagas aged 9 to 41 years, a changing human group along the Indo-Burma Border, has been conducted. The gene frequencies were p! = 0.18, p2 = 0.01, q = 0.10, r = 0.71, m = 0.54, Se (secretor) =0.67, T (taster for PTC) =0.76. There was no colour vision deficiency among the 85 males and 65 females studied.
