Abstract excerpt
Six microsatellite - or short tandem repeat (STR) - systems with uniform repetitive sequences (HumTH01, HumCD4, HumFES/FPS, HumF13B, HumTPO, HumLPL) and three compound repeat systems (HumVWA, HumFIBRA, D21S11) were used, including data from the literature, to determine genetic distances among eight populations worldwide. The TH01- and VWA homologous loci in nonhuman primates (chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans,...
