Abstract

In this study, allelic frequencies of the CODIS core short tandem repeat (STR) loci were estimated in a population sample consisting in 101 unrelated healthy autochthonous individuals from the Basque province of Alava (Northern Spain). Frequency distributions for all 13 STR loci were obtained using the AmpFlSTR Profiler Plus and AmpFlSTR COfiler amplification kits. The allelic frequencies generated were employed to calculate genetic and forensic useful parameters.
