  • Title: Usefulness of 12 Y-STRs for forensic genetics evaluation in two populations from Venezuela.
    Author: Borjas L, Bernal LP, Chiurillo MA, Tovar F, Zabala W, Lander N, Ramírez JL.
    Journal: Leg Med (Tokyo); 2008 Mar; 10(2):107-12. PubMed ID: 17981491.
    Abstract:
    The distribution of allele frequencies and haplotypes for 12 STRs loci, (DYS19, DYS389I/II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS385a/b, DYS437, DYS438 and DYS439) on the Y-chromosome from two Venezuelan populations were determined in 173 DNA samples of unrelated males living in Caracas (62) and Maracaibo (111). Some parameters of forensic importance were calculated. AMOVA and genetic distances between these populations were estimated. The results confirmed Y-STR genotypes as useful markers for forensic genetics analysis.
