title: Kurdish population data for 11 STR loci (ACTBP2, CSF1PO, FGA, TH01, TPOX, vWA, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D13S317 and D21S11).
abstract: In a Kurdish population sample composed of 950 unrelated individuals from Northern Iraq, 11 tetrameric short tandem repeat (STR) loci from 10 different chromosomes (i.e., ACTBP2, CSF1PO, FGA, TH01, TPOX, vWA, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D13S317 and D21S11) were typed to establish a database for immigration cases. The combined power of discrimination (PD) and the combined power of exclusion (PE) of all 11 loci were 0.99999999999994 and 0.99996, respectively.
