Autosomal STR allele frequencies in Kahars of Uttar Pradesh, India, drawn with PowerPlex® 21 multiplex system

Genetic Polymorphism of 15 Autosomal STR loci in Population of Madhya Pradesh

“…Population differentiation test was carried out through Arlequin software (4) . In this test, allelic frequencies of studied population (Madhya Pradesh) was compared with geographically neighbouring regions for which published data is available, namely Balmiki (Punjab) (7) , Sakaldwipi-Brahmin (Jharkhand) (7) , Mahadev-Koli (Maharashtra), Iyengar (Tamilnadu) (7), Kurumans (Tamilnadu) (7) , Lambadi(Andhra Pradesh) (8) , Yerukula (Andhra Pradesh) (8) , Santal (Chota Nagpur) (9) , Bhil (Madhya Pradesh) (10) , Bhil (Gujarat) (11) , Central Indian population, (12) , Gond (Madhya Pradesh) (13) , Kahar population(Uttar Pradesh) (14) , population of Jharkhand (15) , population of Uttar Pradesh (16) . After applying the Bonferroni correction (17) (at the significant level of 95% p<0.003), the population differentiation tests showed that studied population had significant differences with Balmiki (Punjab) in 2 out of 13 loci, with Sakaldwipi_Brahmin (Jharkhand) in 4 out of 13 loci, with Mahadev_Koli (Maharashtra) in 5 out of 13 loci, with Iyengar (Tamilnadu) in 1 out of 13 loci, with Kurumans (Tamilnadu) in 1 out of 13 loci, with Lambadi (Andhra Pradseh) 3 out of 13 loci, with Yerukula (Andhra Pradesh) 9 out of 13 loci, with Santal (Chotanagpur) 6 out of 13 loci, with Bhil (Madhya Pradesh) 3 out of 13 loci, with Bhil (Gujarat) 2 out of 13 loci, with central Indian population 1 out of 13 loci, Gond (Madhya Pradesh) 6 out of 13 loci, with population of Jharkhand 1 out of 13 loci and there is no significant difference with UP population and Kahar population (Uttar Pradesh).…”

Editorial: Forensic investigative genetic genealogy and fine-scale structure of human populations

“…STR genotyping has been applied in forensic investigations for nearly 30 years ( Hagelberg et al, 1991 ; Kayser and de Knijff 2011 ). Nowadays, several commercial STR kits have been developed based on the expanded CODIS loci ( Oostdik et al, 2014 ; Wang et al, 2018 ; Qu et al, 2019 ; Batham et al, 2020 ; Green et al, 2021 ). However, with the rapid increase in the number of STR genotypes in forensic databases, more novel non-CODIS STRs with high genetic polymorphisms are required to minimize the incidence of adventitious matches.…”
