Popis: The objectives of this research were to establish the recessive phenotype frequency of the(in)ability of tongue rolling (fr) and frequency of the(in)ability of tongue folding. The data were collected by means of direct analysis and interviews with pupils from 5th to 8th grade. The research was conducted in rural and urban areas of Zivinice Municipality (OS Zivinice and OS Basigovci). The sample comprised 438 persons of both sexes (202 boys and 236 girls) 11-16 years of age. 197 respondents were from urban and 241 from rural area. The analysis of the obtained results showed that the phenotype frequency of the (in)ability of tongue rolling in Zivinice Municipality is 20,30% with relative frequency of recessive allele qr=0,45, while in the Basigovci area the phenotype frequency of the(in)ability of tongue rolling is 41,90%, with relative frequency of recessive allele qr=0,64. The phenotype frequency of the(in)ability of tongue folding in Zivinice is 32,48%, relative frequency of recessive allele qu=0,56, while the incidence of same phenotipe in Basigovci is 44,81%, and relative frequency of recessive allele is qu=0,66. The analysis of the results in Živinice Municipality show that the frequency of recessive allele is not different from the one found in the previous researeches in the regions of B&H and has approximate value of the frequency of reccesive allele from Gradačac qr=0,55.
