Eleven X-chromosomal STRs from two multiplex PCR approaches (DXS6807, DXS8378, DXS7132, DXS6800, DXS9898, DXS7424, DXS101, DXS7133, HPRTB, DXS8377, and DXS7423), located in four different X-chromosomal linkage groups, were typed in two population samples from Africa, Morocco, and Madagascar. Forensic efficiency parameters such as polymorphism information content and mean exclusion chance were calculated. A deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium could not be found. The investigation of four father-daughter and five mother-son meioses (from Morocco) revealed no mutations in any STR analyzed. Our data were compared with European, African-American, and Asian populations from the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
