Abstract:
The PowerPlex 16 amplification kit was used for the analysis of allele frequencies for the 15 STR loci (D3S1358, TH01, D21S11, D18S51, Penta E, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820, D16S539, CSF1PO, Penta D, VWA, D8S1179, TPOX and FGA) in unrelated, autochthonous healthy adults from Bosnia ( n=123 for TH01, Penta E, D16S539, CSF1PO, Penta D and TPOX, n=210 for D3S1358, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820, VWA, D8S1179 and FGA). The agreement with HWE was confirmed for all loci with the exception of Penta D (based on the chi(2)-test only). The combined power of discrimination (PD) and the combined power of exclusion (PE) for the 15 studied loci were 0.999999999999999997 and 0.999999, respectively.

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
