From the fingertip pattern analysis of 125 families with 376 children from Velanadu Brahmin and 100 families with 286 children from Telaganya Brahmin caste sects of Andhra Pradesh, India, the occurrence of an arch on at least one of the ten finger tips is shown to be aggregated in families. The mode of aggregation is in conformity with a major dominant gene with 0.28 chance of penetrance. This is to some extent contradictory to the result published from the analysis of a single Habbanite Jewish pedigree. Some implications of this discordant result are also discussed.
通过对印度安得拉邦维拉拉杜婆罗门的125个家庭的376名儿童以及特莱根亚婆罗门种姓教派的100个家庭的286名儿童进行指尖纹路分析，发现至少在十个指尖中的一个出现弓形纹的情况在家族中呈聚集性。聚集模式符合一个主要显性基因，其外显率为0.28。这在一定程度上与对一个单一的哈巴尼特犹太家系分析所发表的结果相矛盾。本文还讨论了这一不一致结果的一些影响。
