Analysis of data on 106,848 marriages in the cities of Bangalore and Mysore, South India, between 1980 and 1989 showed that levels of consanguineous marriage varied between cities through time and by religion. The average coefficient of inbreeding was higher in Bangalore (F = 0.0339) than in Mysore (F = 0.0203), principally reflecting large-scale, post-Independence rural migration into Bangalore. Although there was some evidence of a decline in consanguineous marriages in Mysore, there was no convincing support in either city for earlier projections of a rapid reduction in the popularity of unions between close biological relatives.
对1980年至1989年间印度南部班加罗尔和迈索尔市106,848桩婚姻数据的分析表明，近亲婚姻的比例随时间推移以及宗教信仰的不同在不同城市间存在差异。班加罗尔的平均近亲繁殖系数（F = 0.0339）高于迈索尔（F = 0.0203），这主要反映了独立后大规模的农村人口向班加罗尔的迁移。虽然有证据表明迈索尔的近亲婚姻有所减少，但在这两个城市中，都没有令人信服的证据支持早期关于近亲之间结合的流行程度会迅速下降的预测。
