title: [Forensic usefulness of four X-chromosomal STR polymorphisms in north-eastern Poland].
abstract: Allele frequencies for four X-chromosomal STR were determined in a population sample of 1308 unrelated males and females from north-eastern Poland by multiplex PCR and subsequent automated fluorescent detection (ABI 310) using a commercially available multiplex PCR kit (Mentype Argus X-UL). The obtained data support the idea of genetic diversity among population groups of north-eastern Poland. The analysed quadruplex is a potential extension of the battery of autosomal systems in forensic applications, especially in the investigation of kinship analysis and deficiency cases.
