Highland and lowland populations of Lesotho
Abstract:
It has not been possible to demonstrate significant sero-genetic differences between lowland and highland Sotho populations; the differences which do exist may well be attributable to random genetic drift. The study shows that the Sotho have received an appreciable genetic contribution from the San they have absorbed but their sero-genetic profile remains eminently Negro. A low frequency of the PTC non-taster allele was found (t = 0.142 +/- 0.029) as was the overall frequency for colour blindness (cb = 0.013 +/- 0.009).
