Abstract
Population data studies for the three tetranucleotide STR systems HumTH01, HumVWA and FES/FPS were carried out on a Caucasian population sample from Lower Franconia (Germany). The observed heterozygosities were 0.83, 0.80 and 0.73, respectively, and the discrimination power of the triplex was 0.9995. All loci were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium tested using the χ2-analysis.
