Autosomal DIPs for population genetic structure and differentiation analyses of Chinese Xinjiang Kyrgyz ethnic group.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, deletion and insertion polymorphisms (DIPs) were treated as a novel complementary tool with huge potential for forensic applications. In this study, we utilized 30 DIP loci to make a comprehensive research of allele frequency distribution and compute forensic parameters to evaluate the efficiency of forensic applications in the 295 unrelated healthy individuals of Kyrgyz group, and in addition, infer the genetic relationships between Kyrgyz group and 24 other previously studied groups. No significant departures from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and linkage disequilibrium were observed at these 30 DIP loci. The combined power of discrimination and the combined probability of exclusion for all 30 DIP loci in Kyrgyz group were 0.9999999999989 and 0.9939, respectively. Furthermo
