Estudo populacional de 6 STRs (TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D7S820, D13S317 e D16S539) na região Centro de Portugal

Allele frequencies for six autossomal STRs (TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D7S820, D13S317 and D16S539), currently used for genetic identity testing, were determined in a sample of healthy unrelated individuals from Central Portugal (N=70-104). All systems showed conformity with Hardy-Weinberg expectations. Comparison of allele frequencies between Central Portugal and population samples from other Portuguese regions (North, Center and South of Portugal, Madeira and Azores) and several European populations showed no significant differences for most loci which reveal genetic similarity as also robustness on results.
