Genetic data on nine STRs (CSF1PO, TPOX, THO1, F13AO1, FESFPS, vWA, D16S539, D7S820 and D13S317) and two VNTRs (D1S80 and D17S5) in Rosario population, Santa Fe Argentine

Testing for genetic structure in different urban Argentinian populations

“…When comparing Argentinian urban populations at the single locus level, significant P-values were observed between the following pairs of populations: (1) Buenos Aires and Neuquen at D5S818 (P = 0.000), FGA (P = 0.001) and PENTA E (P = 0.002) loci; (2) Buenos Aires and Santa Cruz at D5S818 (P = 0.025) and D13S317 (P = 0.016) loci; (3) Buenos Aires and Tucumán at D13S317 locus (P = 0.029); (4) Neuquen and La Pampa at D5S818 locus (P = 0.011); (5) Neuquen and Córdoba [8] at FGA locus (P = 0.041); (6) Tucumán and Córdoba [11] at D3S1358 (P = 0.015); (7) Tucumán and Rosario [10] at TPOX locus (P = 0.016); (8) Santa Cruz and La Pampa at D5S818 locus (P = 0.041); (9) Santa Cruz and Rosario at TPOX locus (P = 0.027). Pooled data yielded significant differences with Neuquen at D5S818 (Table 3).…”

“…Locus by locus comparisons were also performed, including data in literature from other Argentinian provinces, Córdoba [8,11], Entre Ríos [7], Santa Fe [10], one Native American population from La Puna, Argentina [15], and three European populations, Spain [16], Portugal [17][18][19] and Italy [20]. Neighbor-Joining trees (NJ) were built: (a) using the Fst distance matrix (Slatkin's) obtained from genotypic data of the six studied populations and (b) using a frequency data matrix from the ten loci shared by the six populations, La Puna [15] and the three European populations [16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…A large amount of data on autosomal genetic markers has become available from different regions of Argentina [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] since the beginning of its use in forensic genetics, mainly reported as frequency data from individual populations, with information about Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) and other parameters of forensic interest. Published data on population comparisons mostly focused on anthropological issues that aimed to determine the Native American contribution to the genetic pool of the studied populations [2,3,12].…”

Genetic analysis of the populations from Northern and Mesopotamian provinces of Argentina by means of 15 autosomal STRs

“…In addition, an unexpected population difference was detected for six STRs in the sample from Salta, when compared with the population of central region provinces including Buenos Aires [5,8,11], Córdoba [6,7] and Santa Fe [10]. Significant differences (P < 0.05) for the differential loci are summarized in Table 7.…”

Genetic attributes of 15 autosomal STRs in the population of two patagonian provinces of Argentina

“…Other remarks: The present paper provides additional data on the allele distribution of diverse polymorphic markers [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], in this case special attention was paid to relatively large population samples sets from two Patagonian Province of Argentina. FGA and Penta E are the most informative systems in both populations analyzed and the least discriminating loci is TPOX.…”
