Abstract

We present a Hungarian population study for six tetrameric short tandem repeat (STR) loci employing multiplex PCR amplification, electrophoresis of the PCR products in DNA sequencing gels and subsequent detection of allelic fragments by silver staining. The loci were HUMVWFA31, HUMTH01, HUMCSF1PO, HUMFES/FPS, HUMTPOX, and HUMHPRTB. All loci met Hardy-Weinberg expectations in the examined Hungarian Caucasian population sample (N = 223 individuals). In addition, there was no evidence for association of alleles among the five autosomal loci HUMVWFA31, HUMTH01, HUMCSFIPO, HUMFES/FPS, and HUMTPOX.
