Salivary samples from 223 individuals belonging to two endogamous populations namely the Kalas and the Badagas of the Nilgiri llills, South fndia were sereened for amylase polymorphism using discontinuous vertical polyaerylamide slab gel electrophoresis. The phenotype frequency of Amy1 variants is found to be very high (0.1282) in Badagas. No variant phenotype other than the common AmY1A was observed in Kolas. The results are compared with the existing data available on world populations.
