Abstract
Allele frequencies and forensic parameters for 17 autosomal short tandem repeat (STR) loci were investigated from 1542 individuals of Va ethnic minority in Yunnan Province in the southwest of China. Also, genetic distances between Va and 13 published populations were compared, and a neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree was developed and visualized using averaged F ST matrix. Results demonstrate that these loci are highly polymorphic in the Va population and can be applied in forensic, population genetic, and linguistic fields.Keywords: Autosomal short tandem repeat (STR); Population data; PowerPlex 18D System; Va ethnic minority; Yunnan Province
