Abstract

Allele and genotype frequency data for two STR loci, Penta D and Penta E, were obtained from a sample of 291 unrelated inhabitants from Northern Portugal, with a commercial PCR-based typing kit. No significant deviations from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium were found. There was no evidence for correlation between alleles of the two loci. Appropriate statistical evaluations revealed that these systems have a high forensic efficiency and can be very useful for personal identification among the Northern Portuguese population.
