title: Fluorescence-based amplification of the STR loci D18S535, D1S1656 and D12S391 in a population sample from Aragon (north Spain).
abstract: Population data were generated for the STR loci D18S535, D1S1656 and D12S391 in a population sample of unrelated healthy individuals born and living in Aragon (North Spain). The three loci were amplified using a fluorescence-based PCR method and were typed automatically. No deviation from Hardy-Weinberg expectations were observed. The three loci proved to be highly discriminating and valuable polymorphisms for forensic analyses.
