Allele frequency distribution of 21 forensic autosomal STRs in 7 populations from Yunnan, China

Abstract This study examines the genotypes and allele frequency distributions of 21 forensic autosomal STRs for 7 populations from Yunnan province, China: Han (two different population samples, n = 48 and n = 59, respectively), Nu ( n = 36), Tibetan ( n = 31), Du Long ( n = 24), Lisu ( n = 25) and Y...

Summary:Abstract This study examines the genotypes and allele frequency distributions of 21 forensic autosomal STRs for 7 populations from Yunnan province, China: Han (two different population samples, n = 48 and n = 59, respectively), Nu ( n = 36), Tibetan ( n = 31), Du Long ( n = 24), Lisu ( n = 25) and Yi ( n = 24). Pairwise FST analysis shows (marginally) significant differences between some of the Yunnan populations, but not between the Yunnan populations and other population samples from China and surrounding countries.
