Rh Antigen-If Rh antigen present then it is Rh +ve , and if absent then it is Rh -ve MN blood grouping-  chromosome 4 Duffy antigen- chromosome 1, first blood system antigen to be localized. Bombay blood group-Chromosome 19. Another antigen present on the RBC is the H antigen. H antigen is necessary for the expression of A,B antigens on the RBC surface. O blood group has got only the H antigen.
