A population genetic study of six VNTR loci in three ethnically defined populations.

Genomics - 1 Sept 1991

Deka R, Chakroborty R, Ferrell R E

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the population genetic characteristics of VNTR polymorphisms in human populations, we have studied the allele frequency distribution of six VNTR loci (D1S57, RB1, D1S77, D1S61, alpha-globin 5'HVR, D1S76) in three well-defined populations (Kachari of Northeast India; Dogrib Indian of Canada; and New Guinea Highlander of Papua New Guinea). Even though the number of alleles sampled is limited, 48 to...
