1 7152138 In the first we used nine genetic markers (ABO, Rh, Fy, Hp, Gc, Pl, OR, Tfr, and Gm) and determined that there was significantly greater than zero genetic contribution from whites in our sample of U.S. black IDDM patients (9.6 +/- 2.3%, P less than 0.01) when a sample of U.S. blacks without IDDM was used as one "parental" population.
