The genetic polymorphisms of nine biochemical genetic markers were investigated in four populations (Turks, Kurds, Tehranis and Kermanis) living in the north-east and south-east regions of Iran. Only one of the nine loci studied (acid phosphatase) showed significant gene frequency differences and for the C3 system the F allele frequencies in these populations were the lowest ever reported from Iran.
