Genetic characterization of Guinea-Bissau using a 12 X-chromosomal STR system: ...
Gomes, Iva; Pereira, Plácido J.P.; Harms, Sonja; Oliveira, Andréa M.; Schneider, Peter M.; Brehm, AntónioA male West African sample from Guinea-Bissau (West-African coast) was genetically analyzed using 12 X chromosomal short tandem repeats that are grouped into four haplotype groups. Linkage disequilibrium was tested (p ≤ 0.0008) and association was detected for the majority of markers in three out of the four studied haplotype clusters. The sample of 332 unrelated individuals analyzed in this study belonged to s...
New sequence variants detected at DXS10148, DXS10074 and DXS10134 loci
Gomes, Iva; Brehm, António; Gusmão, Leonor; Schneider, Peter M.A great amount of population and forensic genetic data are available for X-STRs supporting the need for having a common and accurate nomenclature among laboratories allowing for better communication, data exchange, and data comparison. DXS10148, DXS10074 and DXS10134 are commonly used X-STRs particularly due to their inclusion in the commercial kit Investigator Argus X-12 (Qiagen). Samples from West Africa and ...
