Population genetic data determined for five different single locus minisatellite probes.
We report on the population genetic data (frequencies of restriction fragments, heterozygosity rates, and mutation rates) obtained by analysis of approximately 1100 Hinfl-digested DNAs from West Germans. Probe G3 detects a common 1.7 kb DNA fragment showing a population frequency of about 13%. All the other fragments detected with probes MS1, MS31, MS43, G3 and YNH24 show frequencies of less than 8%. These data suggest that single locus DNA probes can provide valuable information for parentage evaluation and individualization.
