Population genetic studies were carried out on Caucasians from north-w
est Croatia (Zagreb-area) using the short tandem repeat (STR) systems
HumTHO1, HumVWA and HumACTBP2. After electrophoresis in FAG, 6 alleles
could be identified for HumTHO1 in a sample size of 100 unrelated ind
ividuals and 7 alleles were found for VWA. For ACT8P2, 25 alleles have
been identified. No significant deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equili
brium could be observed.
