Two new haemoglobin variants, provisionally named Hb G and Hb H, were found during a survey of 295 Welsh Mountain cross-bred sheep. Both haemoglobins appear to be beta chain variants controlled by genes allelic to those for the common forms Hb A and Hb B. Studies on an anaemic Hb AH and an Hb AG type sheep showed that Hb G, like Hb A, is replaced by Hb C in anaemia whereas Hb H, like Hb B, is not replaced.
在对295只威尔士山地杂交绵羊的调查中，发现了两种新的血红蛋白变体，暂命名为Hb G和Hb H。这两种血红蛋白似乎都是β链变体，由与常见形式Hb A和Hb B的基因等位的基因控制。对一只贫血的Hb AH型绵羊和一只Hb AG型绵羊的研究表明，与Hb A一样，Hb G在贫血时会被Hb C取代，而Hb H与Hb B一样，不会被取代。
