The AcP polymorphism frequencies in the Mbugu and Sango of Central Africa (correlations between the P" allele frequencies and some climatic factors in Africa)

This paper reports AcP frequencies in the Mbugu and Sango of Central Africa. Among 39 sub-Saharan populations, correlations between P' allele frequencies and latitude, humidity and altitude indicate that AcP frequencies are significantly correlated with humidity, temperature and altitude. The first-order correlations (constant humidity) diminish by approximately 70% relative to the zero-order correlation.
