title: Population study of six short tandem repeat loci in Antalya, Turkey.
abstract: Population studies of six short tandem repeat loci were carried out in a sample of unrelated Turkish individuals living in Antalya province, southwest Turkey. After electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels, 8 alleles could be identified for THO1, 6 for TPOX and CSF1PO, 9 for VWA, 7 for FES, and 14 for F13A01. There was a significant deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium between observed and expected values for FES and TPOX loci.
