“…Allele frequencies for five new ESS loci and SE33 in Slovenian population did not significantly differ from those in Croatia ( 10 ), Czech Republic ( 11 ), Belgium ( 12 ), Hungary ( 13 ), Germany ( 14 , 18 ), Austria ( 15 ), Italy ( 16 ), and Spain ( 17 , 19 ), and allele frequency distributions for the six loci in most European populations were similar. Slovenian allele frequencies differed only from Spanish ( 17 ) and Italian population ( 16 ), where deviations were observed only for D2S441 and D12S391.…”

“…The same software was used for the frequency profile comparisons between Slovenian and other European Caucasian populations. For comparison of ESS loci data we used population data from Croatia ( 10 ), Czech Republic ( 11 ), Belgium ( 12 ), Hungary ( 13 ), Germany ( 14 ), Austria ( 15 ), Italy ( 16 ), and Spain ( 17 ), and for comparison of SE33 locus data we used population data from Austria ( 15 ), Italy ( 16 ), Germany ( 18 ), and Spain ( 19 ). Statistical parameters of forensic interest: matching probability, power of discrimination, polymorphism information content, power of exclusion, and typical paternity index were determined for each locus as indicators of their discrimination potential in human identification and paternity analysis applications using the PowerStats, version 12 (Promega, Fitchburg, WI, USA).…”

AimTo establish the allele distribution and statistical parameters of forensic interest for the D10S1248, D22S1045, D2S441, D1S1656, D12S391, and SE33 loci in Slovenian population and to compare allele frequencies with those from other populations.MethodsWe analyzed blood and buccal swab samples from 333 unrelated, healthy Slovenian individuals. All samples were genotyped using the AmpFlSTR NGM Kit to obtain the allele frequency data for the loci D10S1248, D22S1045, D2S441, D1S1656, and D12S391. Samples from 113 individuals were also analyzed using the PowerPlex ESX 17 system to obtain the allele frequency data for the SE33 locus. Allele frequencies and statistical parameters of forensic interest were determined and frequency profiles compared between Slovenian and other European Caucasian populations using the Arlequin software, version 3.5.1.3.ResultsThe investigated short tandem repeat (STR) loci in Slovenian population had a great discriminating potential with a combined discrimination power of 0.99999998. The highest discrimination power and polymorphism information content were observed for the SE33 locus, followed by loci D1S1656, D12S391, D10S1248, D2S441, and D22S1045. When Slovenian allele frequency distribution was compared with other European populations, deviations were found only for Spanish and Italian population for D2S441 and D12S391.ConclusionSlovenian population does not differ significantly from other European populations in terms of allele frequency distributions for the six analyzed STR loci. Based on forensic efficiency values, SE33 may be considered the most informative locus, which makes it especially useful in forensic investigations.

“…Single locus comparisons with available published data for the 5 new ESS loci in other geographically close populations (Table 2) revealed significant differences between the population from Romania and other populations: at one locus with population from Austria (9), eastern part of Croatia (11), Italy (15), and southern part of Poland (17); at two loci with the population from the Czech Republic (12) and Macedonia (16); at three loci with the population from Belgium (10); at four loci with the population from Spain (19), Sweden (20), and United Kingdom (21); at five loci with the population from southern part of Germany (13) and Portugal (18). …”

AimTo establish allele frequencies and genetic parameters for 5 new European Standard Set short tandem repeat (STR) loci in the population of Romania and to compare them with those in other populations.MethodsDNA was isolated using QIAamp 96 DNA Swab BioRobot Kit and Chelex 100 methods. Polymerase chain reaction amplification was done using Investigator ESSplexPlus Kit (D1S1656, D2S441, D2S1338, D3S1358, D8S1179, D10S1248, D12S391, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, D22S1045, FGA, TH01, and vWA). For DNA typing, Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Genetic Analyzer was used. Statistical analysis was done using Powerstats, GDA, and Arlequin software.ResultsPower of discrimination and polymorphism information content was highest for two new ESS loci, D1S1656 and D12S391. Comparison of allele frequencies for 5 new ESS loci in Romanian population with previously published population data showed significant differences for all compared populations, with the exception of Hungary. Geographically more distant populations, such as Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, Germany, and Portugal differed more than closer populations.ConclusionNew ESS STR loci are very useful for the analysis of forensic samples (persons or traces) due to their characteristics (shortness and high polymorphism). In comparisons with other common STR markers, they have a higher power of discrimination and also higher polymorphism information content, and could be used in any national DNA database.
