Abstract:
Objective To study the genetic polymorphisms of STR locus D20S85 and to obtain the genetic data of Guangdong Han, Guangxi Zhuang, Huadong Han,Neimenggu Han and Meng populations. Method Using PCR and silver - staining methods, the alleles of D20S85 locus were detected and analysed. Results 9 alleles and 35 genotypes were found in those populations. The highest allele frequency was D20S85* 6. The results of Hardy - Wein-berg equilibrium test showed that the genotype distributions observed in five populations were correspondent with the expected. The expected heterozygosity was 0.7720 - 0.7912; the exclusion probability of paternity was 0.7538-0.7594(triplet) and 0.3988 -0.4297 (biplet) ; the discrimination power 0.9175 -0.9272 and the polymorphism information content 0.7442 - 0.7656. Conclusion STR D20S85 locus is a useful genetic marker for forensic application .
