Summary Three human saliva genetic markers, namely, salivary peroxidase (SAPX), Pm, and Ph proteins, were investigated in the three major ethnic groups of Malaysia: Malays, Chinese, and Indians. For Pm, the allelic frequencies of Pm + for Malays, Chinese, and Indians are 0.385±0.030, 0.282±0.026, and 0.289±0.026 respectively. For Ph, the allelic frequencies of Ph + are 0.082±0.016 for Malays, 0.109±0.017 for Chinese, and 0.062±0.013 for Indians. For SAPX, the allelic frequencies of SAPX 1 in Malays, Chinese, and Indians are 0.762±0.027, 0.755±0.027, and 0.723±0.026 respectively.
