RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To abtain the genetic polymorphisms data of eleven Y-chromosome STR loci in Yunnan Han population, and to evaluate its forensic application values, which will provide the base data for forensic application.@*METHODS@#DYS391, DYS389 I, DYS439, DYS389 II, DYS438, DYS437, DYS19, DYS392, DYS393, DYS390 and DYS385a/b loci were amplified by using Powerplex Y PCR amplification Kit and were analyzed by 310 genetic analyzer. 201 unrelated male individuals of Han population in Yunnan were investigated to determine the distributions of allele frequencies and haplotypes.@*RESULTS@#3, 5, 6, 8, 5, 4, 5, 8, 4, 7 alleles were found across the Y-STR loci except DYS38556 haplotypes were found across DYS385a/b locus. The minimum GD value was 0.4273 (DYS438), and the maximum was 0.9747 (DYS385a/b). 175 haplotypes were found, of which 154 were unique, 16 were found in 2 individuals, 5 were found in 3 individuals, and the observed haplotypes diversity value was 0.9984.@*CONCLUSION@#The 11 Y-STR loci are highly polymorphic and are suitable for forensic personal identification and paternity testing in Yunnan Han population.
