  • Title: Mitochondrial DNA control region variation in a population sample from Hong Kong, China.
    Author: Irwin JA, Saunier JL, Beh P, Strouss KM, Paintner CD, Parsons TJ.
    Journal: Forensic Sci Int Genet; 2009 Sep; 3(4):e119-25. PubMed ID: 19647696.
    Abstract:
    Entire mitochondrial control region sequences were generated from 377 unrelated individuals from urban Hong Kong. In line with other control region datasets from China, the sample from Hong Kong exhibited significant genetic diversity that was reflected in a random match probability of 0.19% and a mean pairwise difference of 13.14. A total of 305 haplotypes were identified, of which 262 were unique. These sequences will be made publicly available to serve as forensic mtDNA reference data for China.
