Using gene frequency data for 18 protein and blood group loci, we studied the genetic relationships of four Indian subcontinent populations (peoples from Punjab, Gujarati, Andhra Pradesh, and Bangladesh) with their neighboring populations (Iranians, Afghans, Sinhalese in Sri Lanka, Nepalese, Bhutanese, Malays, Bataks in northern Sumatra, and Chinese). The results obtained indicate that the four Indian subcontinent populations and the Sinhalese are genetically closer to Iranians and Afghans (Caucasoid) than to the other neighboring Mongoloid populations. Genetic distance analysis shows a clear-cut dichotomy between the Caucasoid and Mongoloid populations.
