Genetic diversity at 15 microsatellite loci among the Adi Pasi population of Adi tribal cluster in Arunachal Pradesh, India.
Genetic polymorphisms at 15 tetrameric short tandem repeat (STR) loci were studied in 203 healthy individuals of Adi Pasi population from Arunachal Pradesh, India. All the loci analyzed were highly polymorphic and there was no significant deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) excepting D8S1179 and D18S51. Other forensic useful statistical parameters were also calculated and the 15 microsatellite markers selected for this study were found to be suitable for human identification and population genetic studies.
