Abstract

A Mexican population sample was obtained from the central region of the country, including five states. Two hundred and eleven individuals were PCR-typed for 15 STR loci with the AmpFι STR Identifiler PCR amplification kit (Applied Biosystems). The following autosomal markers were analyzed: D8S1179, D21S11, D7S820, CSF1PO, D19S433, vWA, TPOX, D18S51, D3S1358, TH01, D13S317, D16S539, D2S1338, D5S818, FGA and Amelogenin. Allele frequencies for each STR were estimated and compared to previous reports. Genotype distribution by locus and by two loci combination was in agreement with Hardy–Weinberg expectations for all 15 STRs. This STR system in Mexican-mestizos presented a combined probability of exclusion (PE) and discrimination (PD) longer than 99.999%.
