Abstract

Fifteen autosomal STRs were evaluated using Identifiler plus kit in 121 Arain samples of Pakistan. The highly discriminatory locus was D2S1338 with value of 0.968. Allele 8 at TPOX was the most frequent with value of 0.467. No significant deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were seen except D3S1358 and D18S51. Combined power of discrimination, combined power of exclusion, and combined matching probability were obtained as 0.9999999999999999925, 0.99999815, and 7.4897 × -18, respectively. Population differentiation test demonstrated significant differences between Arain and geographically distinct populations.

Keywords: Allelic frequency; Arain population; Autosomal STRs; Polymorphism.
