1,153 unrelated individuals from three different areas of Italy were tested for the red cell esterase D polymorphism. The gene frequencies found in the three groups do not differ significantly from each other. The EsD2 allele in the total sample has a frequency of 14.6% but it is difficult at the present stage to know if this figure is valid for the whole Italian population. If so, the Italian EsD2 allele frequency lies at the upper limit of the range of the European values. No variant phenotypes were observed.
对来自意大利三个不同地区的1153名无亲缘关系的个体进行了红细胞酯酶D多态性检测。在这三组中发现的基因频率彼此之间没有显著差异。在整个样本中，EsD2等位基因的频率为14.6%，但现阶段很难确定这个数字是否适用于整个意大利人群。如果适用，意大利EsD2等位基因频率处于欧洲值范围的上限。未观察到变异表型。
