In a world where different ethnicities had strong genetic differences which caused different moral behavior, would racism be okay or still not okay?

Underspecified. Do you mean, like, Always Lawful Evil, or a different distribution of familiar human moral behaviors, or something else entirely?

depends on distribution parameters and nature of differences.
Having said that I am about 75% confident brits are predisposed to turning everything into jail the way beavers are driven to build dams.

One should always deal with individuals and not groups - e.g. the two sexes are very different with regards to crime. Rape and violent crime are pretty much a male problem - but we blame individual men, not the entire sex.

Moral behaviors would still not depend 100 % on race. Racism would be mistaken sometimes, so it wouldn’t be ok or even accurate.
