Ad. Kloosterman et al., DUTCH CAUCASIAN POPULATION-DATA ON THE LOCI LDLR, GYPA, HBGG, D7S8, AND GC, International journal of legal medicine, 108(1), 1995, pp. 36-38
To introduce the loci LDLR, GYPA, HBGG, D7S8, and GC (PM loci) in Dutc
h forensic identity testing, allele and genotype frequencies were dete
rmined in a Dutch Caucasian population sample, which had previously be
en typed for the HLADQA1 locus [12]. All 6 loci met Hardy-Weinberg equ
ilibrium expectations, and there is little evidence for association be
tween pairs of loci. The combined power of discrimination for all 6 lo
ci is 0.9997. The allele frequencies of the PM loci were similar to 2
other Caucasian populations [3, 10], and differed from 3 non-Caucasian
populations [3].
