Genetic diversity at 15 STR loci in two tribal populations in Southern China.
In this research, the allelic distribution of 15 tetrameric short tandem repeats (STR) loci (D8S1179, D21S11, D7S820, CSF1PO, D3S1358, TH01, D13S317, D16S539, D2S1338, D19S433, vWA, TPOX, D18S51, D5S818, FGA) were obtained from 167 Mulao and 108 Maonan unrelated individuals. The Genepop v3.4 and the PowerStats v1.2 were used to perform statistical tests and to calculate the forensic parameters. All loci of the two populations showed no significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The results showed the 15 STR loci of the two populations have a high degree of genetic polymorphism.
