Abstract

The allele frequency distributions of six STR loci (D3S1358, D16S539, THOI, D8S1179, LPL, and HUMvWFII) used in forensic practice were analyzed in populations of Sakha (Yakutia): three ethnogeographical groups of Sakha (Yakuts), Evenks, Yukagirs, Dolgans, and Russians. There were significant differences between Russians and all other populations by five markers. The total discriminating power (PD) of the locus system studied was assessed for each population. The interpopulation genetic difference (F ST) was 0.005. Data on the allelic polymorphism of the above STR loci were used to analyze phylogenetic relationships among the populations of Sakha and those of other regions: East Europe, South Siberia, Chukotka, and Kamchatka.
