Population data for 22 autosomal STR loci in the Uygur ethnic minority.
Allele frequencies and forensically relevant population statistics parameter of 22 short tandem repeat (STR) loci were determined from 525 unrelated Uygur ethnic individuals. The samples were amplified with Microreader™ 23sp ID system. No significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was detected, except for loci D7S3048, D21S1270, and D13S325. Investigated loci are very discriminating in Uygur ethnic population, with a combined discrimination power of 0.999999999999999999999999999920743. Furthermore, a comparison with previously published frequency data from Han population is presented.
