Distribution characteristics of ABO blood groups in China.

ABSTRACT: ABO blood groups distribution shows obvious geographical differences globally, but the reliability of the Blood data for assessing relationships between population groups is limited. This is mostly due to the lack of availability and interchange of this important data. We collected data of 23 million ABO blood group population from 34 provincial-level administrative regions in China. To ensure the reliability of the results, we standardized the 23 million data by the China seventh census data. The ranking of ABO blood groups phenotypic distribution in China is O > A > B > AB. The proportions of A, B, O and AB type in China population are 28.72%, 28.17%, 34.20%, and 8.91%, respectively. Accordingly, the frequencies of p [A], q [B], and r [O] gene at the ABO blood group are 0.211, 0.2
