Abstract

Karl Landsteiner made important contribution in the history of blood transfusion through the discovery of the ABO blood group in the year 1901. After forty years, Landsteiner with Wiener discovered Rh (D) antigen. The genes of ABO and Rh (D) are located on chromosome 9 and 1 respectively. Landsteiners discovery opened the door and made possible wide discoveries in the field of immunohaematology. Blood groups being the simple and most appropriate genetic markers still continue to rule in studies of human population variation and also it is available tool in blood transfusion, forensic medicine and paternity disputes (Bhasin et.al. 1994; Bhasin and Walter, 2001).
