Descrição

Allele frequencies of six autosomal short tandem repeat (STR) markers (TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D13S317, D7S820 and D16S539) were estimated in a population sample (N=53-85) of unrelated individuals from São Tomé e Principe (West Africa). No deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were observed for all loci. Allele frequency distribution and heterozygosity values were similar with those from other sub-Saharan African populations.
