Study on genetic polymorphisms of 13 SNP loci in Guangxi Zhuang population of China

Abstract

The fluorescence labeled multi-PCR system was applied to investigate the allele frequency of the 13 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in 314 Guangxi Zhuang populations, and to evaluate their application value in forensic medicine. Thirteen autosomal diallelic SNP loci were selected and the SNP genotyping system of fragment length discrepant allele specific fluorescence labeled multi-PCR technique was applied to investigate their allele frequency distribution in Guangxi Zhuang population. The allele frequencies of the 13 single nucleotide pdymorphism (SNP) in Guangxi Zhuang population were obtained, which shows that the allele frequency distribution is in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Their heterozygosity was between 0.2166 and 0.5478, the polymorphism information content was between 0.2084 and 0.3750, their cumulate discrimination probability was 99.99%, and the cumulate exclusion power was 87.71%. Several SNP loci could be genotyped simultaneously using the fluorescence labeled fragment length discrepant multiplex-PCR technique; the 13 SNP loci have a highly applicable value in the field of forensic personal identification.
