The distribution of red blood cell antigens of 10,000 Jewish Israeli men are presented by their country of birth. The ABO, MNSs, Rh, Kell, Duffy and Kidd blood groups were examined, and their frequencies were analyzed for each of 20 countries of birth. These results can serve as control and reference data for various studies, both basic and applied, concerning Jewish communities. The data are shown in various ways: phenotype and allele frequencies are presented alphabetically by countries of birth, and the allele frequencies are also shown by lowest to highest frequencies among the communities. The data indicate that Jews from Europe and Morocco tend to have intermediate allele frequencies. At the extremes are mainly Jews from Yemen, Aden and Yugoslavia. These observations are in accordance with previous studies on genetic distances.
