Genotype data for 60 SNP genetic markers associated with eye, hair, skin color, ABO blood group, sex, core Y-chromosome haplogroups in Kazakh population.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The collection of genotype data was conducted as an essential part of a pivotal research project with the goal of examining the genetic variability of skin, hair, and iris color among the Kazakh population. The data has practical application in the field of forensic DNA phenotyping (FDA). Due to the limited size of forensic databases from Central Asia (Kazakhstan), it is practically impossible to obtain an individual identification result based on forensic profiling of short tandem repeats (STRs). However, the pervasive use of the FDA necessitates validation of the currently employed set of genetic markers in a variety of global populations. No such data existed for the Kazakhs. The Phenotype Expert kit (DNA Research Center, LLC, Russia) was used for the first time in th
