[Distribution of three STR loci in Dai ethnic group in China].
OBJECTIVE
This study was conducted to investigate the distribution of three STR loci in Dai ethnic group.


METHODS
Multiplex amplifications of CSF1PO, TPOX and TH01 were carried out. Using denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining the authors investigated the distribution of allele frequencies of CSF1PO, TPOX and TH01 loci in Dai ethnic group living in Yunnan province.


RESULTS
7 alleles and 15 genotype of CSF1PO locus, 7 alleles and 18 genotypes of TPOX locus, 6 alleles and 17 genotypes of TH01 locus were observed.


CONCLUSIONS
The allele distribution of the loci is in good agreement with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
