Blood Type Diversity Europe

[Northern_Sun]

I would like to start a poll and discussion on Blood Types, as it is an interesting way to study human diversity without the bias of phenotype or race.

The common Blood Groups are: O+ , O- , A+ , A- , B+ , B- , AB+, AB-

There are other blood groups but they are anomalies so I am just listing them as other.

Although almost any of the world population can have a certain blood type some are more frequent if not exclusive to certain inhabitants. For example, O- is found in large percent in the Basque population of Spain and France, Rh Positive B is found in the highest percent in Asians,while its counterpart Rh Negative B is found almost solely in Europeans.


http://s155239215.onlinehome.us/turkic/63_Blood_Types/Blood_TypesEn_files/image008.gif

The Rh negative trait is almost exclusive to European populations, A – and B – , it is also found as a silent allele in 40-45% of Rh Positive Europeans. Early European population was found to have a very high Rh Negative frequency which makes this mutation of European origin.

Take into consideration that most populations have migrated and mixed (even with other European populations) at some point in time.

If you have any questions about the origins or distributions please let me know.

If you can add any new finding to this it would be great to expand our current knowledge! Thanks!:thumbs up

Blood type A is most common to Scandinavians. Some articles state there is a large percent of this blood in Australian aborigines , but fail to mention that theirs has a different mutation and is not related to European A.

AB- is the rarest common blood type. Found in roughly 1% of the population. People with AB make neither anti-A nor anti-B antibodies. If a person needed a serum(not cell) transfusion you would be a universal donor.

Based on comparisons of Icelandic mitochondrial DNA with other European populations, Icelandic women are most similar to the Welsh and British which would explain the similarity of blood distribution.

There is an interesting fact about O - as a universal donor.

Type O blood actually contains both anti-A and anti-B agents in its serum, meaning, if untreated type O blood was given to a type A or B individual it would coagulate and clump the patient’s own cells, killing them. Type O cells are first separated and then rinsed free of antibody containing serum. Afterwards it is safe to be given to any patient!

Only around 7% of people of European descent have type O negative blood. The highest percentage is found in Spain, Australia, New Zealand and Iceland.

In Europe, about 20-40 percent of Basque have type O negative blood.

AB+ is pretty rare! Between 1-3% of the world’s population has this type.

In Europe around 12% of Hungarians have this type.

You are also probably not Basque as the Basque have virtually no B or AB blood.

And it looks like Iberian Celts were found to have B and AB blood.

Your parents must have been either both AB, AB/B,AB/A, or A/B.

AB has both A and B antigens on red blood cells (but neither A nor B antibody in the plasma) so you can donate plasma to anybody.

Studies also showed that type A and AB have a higher risk of heart disease and high cholesterol due do the difference in blood vessels between the blood groups. In research group AB is also resistant to cholera due to its protein structure. On a microbiological note blood groups are very interesting.

I have sources for all this info from various books(not my head). If I find anything else that’s interesting in my books I will let you know!

Biologically the Rh negative mutation arose in Europe 25,000 to 35,000 years ago and spread from there. It does determine that this is a European mutation.

Berber mtDNA

The Berbers are the indigenous populationof north-west Africa. Although their Y-DNA is almost perfectly homogenous, belonging to haplogroup E-M81, Berber maternal lineages show a much greater diversity, as well as regional disparity. At least half (and up to 90% in some regions) of the Berbers belong to some Eurasian lineages, such as H, HV, R0, J, T, U, K, N1, N2, and X2, mostly of Middle or Near Eastern origin. 5 to 45% of the Berbers will have sub-Saharan mtDNA (L0, L1, L2, L3, L4, L5). There are only three native North African lineages, U6, X1 and M1, representing 0 to 35% of the people depending on the region.

Haplogroup U6 has been observed from the Iberia and the Canary Islands to Senegal in the West, and from Syria to Ethiopia and Kenya in the East. It is also found at low density in Europe, though mostly limited to Iberia. Approximately 10% of all North Africans belong to this lineage.

So, through MtDNA some Berbers are related to Europeans. Please stop showing your ignorance.

You're pretty ridiculous, a black African and a Chinese may have the same blood type, the Celts of Spain were different from each other, Celts were not one people, were a culture, the Celtiberians had the same types of blood that the current Spanish, A+ and O+ mostly and that's the only reliable source.

[Ouistreham]

Blood group doesn't tell anything about an individual's phenotype, but the interesting point about it is that their statistical breakdown does tell a lot about ethnicities' past history.

If an originally homogeneous nation (provided it's large enough to impede bottleneck effects) repeatedly receives, generation after generation, some input from another race, the average phenotype will end up being substantially modified.

But strangely, it seems the original statistical distribution of blood groups keeps replicating itself at each generation. Sounds like a very conservative factor.

IMHO this inherent stability could be the reason why the Basque people, though being phenotypically and even genetically extremely close to their Castilian and Gascon neighbours, still show anomalous blood group stats.

Most astonishing, Eurasian invaders like the Finns and the Turks succeded to assimilate to their cultures peoples of Northern Europe and Anatolia. Now the Finns are virtually undistinguishable from the Germanics and Slavs surrounding them, and the modern Turks are just another Middle-Eastern nation. Despite their vaguely common origin in the Finno-Ugric and Uralo-Altaic Urheimats, they are racially as different as they can.

But their blood group distribution remains eerily similar:

Anger, O moves to the highest position in the list).
More recently, obsessive-compulsive disorder having

[Pallantides]

A+




The A blood allele is somewhat more common around the world than B. About 21% of all people share the A allele. The highest frequencies of A are found in small, unrelated populations, especially the Blackfoot Indians of Montana (30-35%), the Australian Aborigines (many groups are 40-53%), and the Lapps, or Saami people, of Northern Scandinavia (50-90%). The A allele apparently was absent among Central and South American Indians.

I am not certain that the Rh- factor happened in Europe, but it certainly survived better there. The highest frequencies to my knowledge are in the Karaite Jews of Iraq and the Basques. Besides the places mentioned, it is also found in the Caucasus.

MtDNA Haplogroup H is a Eurasian Haplogroup found in 40-50% of Western Europeans.


http://www.eupedia.com/images/content/mtdna-haplogroup-chart.gif


European mtDNA haplogroups and their subclades
Haplogroup H & V (mtDNA)


Haplogroup H is by far the most common all over Europe, amounting to about 40% of the European population. It is also found (though in lower frequencies) in North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, Northern Asia, as well as along the East coast of Africa as far as Madagascar.
H1, H3 and V are the most common subclades of HV in Western Europe.

H1 peaks in Norway (30% of the population) and Iberia (18 to 25%), and is also high among the Sardinians, Finns and Estonians (16%), as well as Western and Central European in general (10 to 12%) and North-West Africans (10 to 20%). H3 is commonest in Portugal (12%), Sardinia (11%), Galicia (10%), the Basque country (10%), Ireland (6%), Norway (6%), Hungary (6%) and southwestern France (5%). Haplogroup V reaches its highest frequency in northern Scandinavia (40% of the Sami), northern Spain, the Netherlands (8%), Sardinia, the Croatian islands and the Maghreb. It is likely that H1, H3 and V, along with haplogroup U5, were the main haplogroups of Western European hunter-gatherers living in the Franco-Cantabrian refuge during the last Ice Age, and repopulated much of Central and Northern Europe from 15,000 years ago.

Haplogroup H13 is most common in Sardinia and around the Caucasus. Its distribution is reminiscent of Y-DNA haplogroup G2a. The same is true of H2 to a lower extent. This would suggest a Caucasian or Anatolian origin.

H5 and H7 are also common in the Caucasus, but their lower incidence around the Mediterranean, and higher frequency from Anatolia to the Alps via the Danube suggest a possible link with the spread of agriculture (YDNA E1b1b, J2 and T) or of the Indo-Europeans (R1b1b2).

Icelandic, Norwegian and Irish Blood group comparison:

Based on comparisons of Icelandic mitochondrial DNA with other European populations, Icelandic women are most similar to the Welsh and British which would explain the similarity of blood distribution.

Old thread but not Welsh and British really. It was Gaelic women (ie Irish and Scots from the Western Isles) they took back to Iceland with them because that is where they had their settlements. It was mostly Norse Vikings that went to Iceland originally but I know that other Scandinavians went there as well. This is the reason why some Icelandic names have Gaelic roots including Njál, Brján, Kjartan and Kormakr (from Niall, Brian, Muircheartach and Cormac).

I have no idea of my blood type.

According to studies Sardinians have :

0 50% - A 26% - B 19% - AB 5%

While Italians have :

0 46% - A 41 % - B 11% - AB 3%

[GabrielZ]

Woa, many people with O-. I thought it was rare

[Mädel Edelweiß]

O- universal donor highest in Britain, generosity is in our blood. No wonder we generously spread our systems of commerce, trade, politics, morality and wealth around the world expecting so little in return. Spain too.

or maybe....

Is there a way to tell blood type from AncestryDNA or FTDNA raw data?

[billErobreren]

O-, if I remember right. Haven't been to a blood bank in years though

I just answered my own question and the answer is yes!

Just means you only have 2 O alleles so you are blood type O. IF you where OB or BB you would have blood type B (no difference between OB or BB) as its dominant.
Are you genotyped at rs590787 or i4001527? These SNPs can be used to work out if you are +ve or -ve. Unfortunately many commercial services miss them.

[Dick]

A+ according to 23andme.

According to this I should be either A+ or A-. My father is A- and mother B+, does anyone know if this gives any indication what my rhesus factor is or could I be either one?

[Finnish Swede]

AB (Rh+)

I go to donate my blood regularly (local Red Cross's Veripalvelu (= blood service) organize that in here.

AB blood type is clearly much newer blood type vs others: A, O, B, but it is still not all the way the best blood types of humans.
More like with all mutations .... some of those are good, some are bad, some are neutral and some good some ways and bad other ways (fully bad/harmful mutations will simply die away).

if unfortunately you are Rh+ there still is a hope....


This is because Rh- is something called a recessive trait. This means that someone who is Rh+ might have a hidden Rh- in their DNA.

Well ... I mainly think about this via risks of getting some diseases.

[Albannach]

Does anyone know if two siblings can have different blood groups? my Mother is Blood group O, but my aunt is Blood group A, does this mean that my little Irish Granny has been a naughty lady?

[Crimean]

I am not sure what my father had (I believe O-) but I have B+ and so did my late mother.
An interesting coincidence. I have B+, like my mom. and my dad is the O-.
I have never been a donor.

[Kaspias]

0+, mom A+ and father B+
