Description
Summary:•Twenty-two autosomal short tandem repeat loci were genotyped in Vietnamese Mong population.•A total of 205 alleles were found among 156 unrelated and healthy individuals.•The allele frequencies data of Mong population in Ha Giang are useful in forensic medicine.•The Mong people in Vietnam is closely related with other Hmong – Mien populations. This study investigated 22 autosomal short tandem repeat (STR) loci in 156 unrelated individuals from the Mong ethnic minority in Ha Giang Province, Vietnam. Allele frequencies and forensic parameters were calculated, showing the combined Powers of Discrimination reaching 1.000000000000000000000000000000 and the combined Power of Exclusion greater than 0.999999986623. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the Vietnamese Mong population has close genetic relationships with other Hmong-Mien populations.
