Y-chromosomal STR haplotype diversity in males from Santa Catarina, Brazil

One-hundred and nine unrelated and healthy males from Santa Catarina, Brazil were included in this study. Allele frequencies and gene diversities for the loci DYS456, DYS458 and DYS448 were calculated. A comparison between our population and others was performed.

DNA typing of Diptera collected from human corpses in Portugal

Medico-legal entomology, one area in the broad field of entomology, is routinely used in forensic applications. Insects are often collected from a corpse during criminal information related to the body, but requires the fast and accurate identification of the species attracted to the remains. The local entomofauna in most cases is important for explaining entomological evidence. The survey of the local entomofa...

Analysis of 10 X-linked tetranucleotide markers in mixed and isolated populations

We have applied a recently described X-STRs decaplex to characterize four population groups of the Iberian Peninsula, including two well mixed populations and two relatively isolated ones from Northern Spain, in order to get a better insight about the characteristics of X-STRs in those population types between-population differences in allelic frequencies were relatively small. Nevertheless, Fst values were bet...

A GEP-ISFG collaborative study on the optimization of an X-STR decaplex: data o...

In a collaborative work carried out by the Spanish and Portuguese ISFG Working Group (GEP-ISFG), a polymerase chain reaction multiplex was optimized in order to type ten X-chromosome short tandem repeats (STRs) in a single reaction, including: DXS8378, DXS9902, DXS7132, DXS9898, DXS6809, DXS6789, DXS7133, GATA172D05, GATA31E08, and DXS7423. Using this X-decaplex, each 17 of the participating laboratories typed ...

Genetic Data of Four X-Chromosomal STRs in a Population Sample of Santa Catarin...

A total of 184 healthy unrelated individuals (70 females and 114 males), autochthonous from Santa Catarina, Brazil.

Genetic Data of 4 X-Chromosomal Short Tandem Repeats in a North of Portugal Pop...

One hundred unrelated females and 100 unrelated males, autochthonous, healthy, from the North of Portugal.

Genetic Data of 11 Y-Chromosome STRs in Males from a North of Portugal Population

Data show that the haplotype is highly polymorphic and discriminative in the North of Portugal population.

Genetic Data of Five STR Loci in a Population Sample of Santa Catarina, Brazil

In routine forensic casework, it is important to establish a population database for further reliable statistical analysis.
