What are the six different blood type genotypes?

The primary blood types in humans are controlled by the ABO and Rhesus factor systems, there are some other antigen factors that also determine certain rare blood types in addition to these but they have only a minor influence.AB Rh+AB Rh-A Rh+A Rh-B Rh+B Rh-O Rh+O Rh-In total 33 blood-group systems (each group having 2 or more blood types) have been identified, including the ABO and Rh systems. Thus, in addition to the ABO antigens and Rh antigens, many other antigens are expressed on the red blood cell surface membrane. For example, an individual can be AB, D positive, and at the same time M and N positive (MNS system), K positive (Kell system), Lea or Leb negative (Lewis system), and so on, being positive or negative for each blood group system antigen. Many of the blood group systems were named after the patients in whom the corresponding antibodies were initially encountered.
