Allele frequencies for STR loci in a Sicilian population: Genetic prevalence and disequilibrium

Population data of the GlobalFiler ® Express loci in South Portuguese population

“…Amplified products were separated and detected by capillary electrophoresis in a 3130 Genetic analyzer and data analysis and allele calling was achieved using GeneMapper ® ID-X 1. Allelic frequencies were compared to previously published population data from North [8,9] and Central [10,11] Portugal populations, as well as, others populations, namely, Spanish [12], US Caucasian and African American [13], Korean [14], Lebanese [15], Dutch [16], Austrian [17,18], Swedish [19][20][21] and Italian (Sicilia) [22,23]. Genetic distances between populations can be observed in phylogram presented in Fig.…”
