Genetic variation and forensic characteristic analysis of 25 STRs of a novel fluorescence co-amplification system in Chinese Southern Shaanxi Han population

Abstract

We analyzed the genetic polymorphisms of 15 autosomal and 10 Y-chromosomal STR loci in 214 individuals of Han population from Southern Shaanxi of China and studied the genetic relationships between Southern Shaanxi Han and other populations. We observed a total of 150 alleles at 15 autosomal STR loci with the corresponding allelic frequencies ranging from 0.0023 to 0.5210, and the combined power of discrimination and exclusion for the 15 autosomal STR loci were 0.99999999999999998866 and 0.999998491, respectively. For the 10 Y-STR loci, totally 100 different haplotypes were obtained, of which 94 were unique. The discriminatory capacity and haplotype diversity values of the 10 Y-STR loci were 0.9259 and 0.998269, respectively. The results demonstrated high genetic diversities of the 25 STR loci in the population for forensic applications. We constructed neighbor-joining tree and conducted principal component analysis based on 15 autosomal STR loci and conducted multidimensional scaling analysis and constructed neighbor-joining tree based on 10 Y-STR loci. The results of population genetic analyses based on both autosomal and Y-chromosome STRs indicated that the studied Southern Shaanxi Han population had relatively closer genetic relationship with Eastern Han population, and distant relationships with Croatian, Serbian and Moroccan populations.

RETRACTED: Forensic characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of one branch of Tai‐Kadai language‐speaking Hainan Hlai (Ha Hlai) via 23 autosomal STRs included in the Huaxia™ Platinum System

“…Ha Hlai, a branch of Hainan Hlai, speaks Ha Hlai localism which is a branch of Tai‐Kadai language generally belongs to the Sino‐Tibetan language family. To illustrate the genetic differences of the Sino‐Tibetan language‐speaking populations, especially for the Ha Hlai, we established a database which included 49 populations with Sino‐Tibetan language (30 Chinese/Sinitic, 8 Tai‐Kadai, 6 Tibeto‐Burman, and 5 Hmong‐Mien language‐speaking population, totally 60,347 individuals) to perform PCA based on allelic frequencies of the same 19 autosomal STRs (Bai et al, 2017; Chan, Chiu, Tsui, Wong, & Fung, 2005; Chen Chunbao, Tian Xin, & Hanhua, 2017; Chen et al, 2017; Chen, Zhu, Shiming, You, & Ma, 2010; Deng et al, 2007; Fan, Wang, Chen, et al, 2019; Fan, Wang, Ren, et al, 2019; Ferdous et al, 2010; Guo, 2017; Guo, Li, Wei, Ye, & Chen, 2017; He et al, 2017; Hongdan et al, 2017; Huihui Lian, Lin, & Li, 2015; Jingzhou Wang, Zhai, Wang, Zhang, & Wang, 2015; Kraaijenbrink, van Driem, Tshering of Gaselô, & de Knijff, 2007; Le Wang, Zhang, Bai, & Ye, 2013; Li, Zheng, & Jun, 2017; Li et al, 2015, 2018; Liao et al, 2019; Lili Zhang et al, 2017; Liu, Liu, & Wang, 2006a, 2006b; Liu, Chen, Huang, et al, 2017; Liu, Chen, Mei, et al, 2017; Meng Pan et al, 2012; Qiuling Liu, Huiling, & Chen, 2003; Shen, Kang, Dong, Guo, & Wang, 2015; Sun et al, 2017; Sun, Zhang, Wu, Shen, & Wu, 2015; Wenming Han, 2016; Xiao, Zhang, Wei, Pan, & Huang, 2016; Xie et al, 2014; Xiuzi & Changchun, 2017; Xu, Feng, & Yao, 2017; Xu, Xu, Wang, & Yao, 2017; Yang et al, 2017, 2018; Yao et al, 2016; Zhang, 2015; Zhang, Zhao, Guo, Liu, & Wang, 2015; Zhang et al, 2013, 2018; Zhang, Du, et al, 2017; Zhang, Hu, Du, Nie, et al,…”
