Resumo(s)
Allele and haplotype frequencies of 15 chromosome STR loci included in the kit PowerPlex1 16 System from Promega, were
determined in a sample of unrelated males from Guine´-Bissau, a country from the west African coast. All individuals were
subjected to an interview in order to make sure that their ancestors belonged to the same ethnic group. This way we intended to
look for possible inter-ethnic differences. PowerPlex 16 includes STRs not studied before in any multi-ethnic population. The kit
includes two new allele markers (Penta D and Penta E), which are very useful either in forensics or population genetic studies.
The Guinean population presents significant differences when compared with other African populations.
