STR allelic frequencies for an African population sample (Equatorial Guinea) using AmpFlSTR Identifiler and Powerplex 16 kits

We present allele frequencies and forensic parameters for 17 STRs included in the AmpFlSTR Identifiler (CSF1PO, D2S1338, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, FGA, TH01, TPO and VWA) and Powerplex 16 System (CSF1PO, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D1...

Description
Summary:We present allele frequencies and forensic parameters for 17 STRs included in the AmpFlSTR Identifiler (CSF1PO, D2S1338, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, FGA, TH01, TPO and VWA) and Powerplex 16 System (CSF1PO, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D21S11, FGA, Penta D, Penta E, TH01, TPO and VWA) in a sample of 134 unrelated individuals from Equatorial Guinea located in Western Africa, between Cameroon and Gabon. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was tested for each locus and the sample was compared with five African databases: Promega's and AB Applied Biosystems African-Americans and samples from Mozambique, from Cabinda (Angola) and Guinea-Bissau.
