Abstract:
Allele frequencies of 15 autosomal STR loci included in PowerPlex 16 System were determined from a sample of 148 unrelated Bangladeshi individuals. Forensic efficiency parameters such as, the power of discrimination (PD), observed and expected heterozygosity (H), polymorphism information content (PIC), probability of match (PM), power of exclusion (PE), and typical paternity index were calculated for the loci. These parameters indicated the usefulness of the loci in paternity testing and personal identification in the Bangladeshi population.
