North Italian population genetic data on the STR system HumFGA.
Frequency data for the STR system HumFGA were obtained from a North Italian population sample (Milano area) of 201 unrelated individuals. PCR products were detected by horizontal polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and a total of 15 alleles were identified by side-by-side comparison with a commercially available sequenced allelic ladder. The observed genotype distribution showed no significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The high information content (discrimination power > 0.96, polymorphism information content > 0.84) render this system a useful tool in forensic routine casework both in criminal and paternity cases.
