Abstract:
Allele and genotype frequencies of three highly polymorphic loci (apoB, HLADQ alpha, D1S80) have been determined in an Italian sample using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and non-radioactive detection. The allele frequencies ranged from 0.1% to 39%, with an average heterozygosity of 0.74 and a power of discrimination ranging from 0.90 to 0.98. These results are of value for forensic and genetic studies. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
