It has been demonstrated that autosomal STRs have become the choice of loci for determination of parentage testing and in forensic analysis. Allele frequencies of 15 AmpFlSTR Identifiler STR loci (D8S1179, D21S11, D7S820, CSF1PO, D3S1358, TH01, D13S317, D16S539, D2S1338, D19S433, vWA, TPOX, D18S51, D5S818, and FGA) were analyzed in a sample of 102 Romani individuals from Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. The agreement with HWE was tested by the exact test and the χ 2-test. Forensic parameters (power of discrimination (PD), power of exclusion (PE), polymorphic information content (PIC), probability of match (PM), paternity index (PI)) and heterozygosity for the 15 studied STR loci were calculated. The interpopulation comparisons between Macedonian Romani and neighbouring Balkan populations: Macedonians, Kosovo Albanians, Serbians from Vojvodina province and Montenegrians were also made. |
