Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of 24 autosomal short tandem repeats (STR) loci in Gelao and Miao populations dwelled in Guizhou province, and explore the population genetic relationships and evaluate their application value on forensic medicine. Methods: The DNA samples of 732 unrelated individuals (399 Guizhou Gelao population and 333 Guizhou Miao population) were amplified using SureID® PanGlobal kit, and the PCR products were analyzed by electrophoresis through 3500XL genetic analyzer. The fragment sizes of alleles were subsequently analyzed by GeneMapper ID-X v1.5. Allele frequencies and forensic genetic parameters of 24 STR loci were statistically analyzed and compared with the available data of other populations from different races and regions. Results: For Guizhou Gelao and Miao populations, the individual discrimination power (DP) ranged from 0.7833 to 0.9909 and 0.8010 to 0.9909, respectively; the polymorphic information content (PIC) ranged from 0.5608 to 0.9385 and 0.5677 to 0.9414, respectively; the total discrimination power (TDP) were 1-7.6036 × 10-30 and 1-6.8630 × 10-30, respectively, and the cumulative probability of exclusion (CPE) were 1-1.9608 × 10-11 and 1-1.9738 × 10-14, respectively. Analysis with the matrix of Nei's DA genetic distance indicated that the genetic distance was the smallest (0.0205) between Guizhou Gelao and Hubei Han populations, while was the largest (0.0449) between Guizhou Gelao and Yunnan Miao populations; the genetic distance was minimum (0.0033) between Guizhou Miao and Hunan Han populations, while was maximal (0.0363) between Guizhou Miao and Yunnan Miao. Conclusions: The 24 STR loci are abundant in genetic polymorphism in Guizhou Gelao and Miao populations. It is of great significance to study the genetic diversity of different ethnic groups in order to understand their origin, migration and interrelationship.
