Allele frequency distributions of four STR loci vWA, TH01, TPOX and F13A01 in three Asian populations (Japanese, Bangladeshis and Indonesians)

Allele frequencies for four short tandem repeat (STR) loci vWA, TH01, TPOX and F13A01 were determined in three Asian populations, Japanese, Bangladeshis and Indonesians. No deviations from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium were observed in the three populations for all loci. The combined power of discrimination (PD) for the four loci was 0.9995 in Japanese, 0.99991 in Bangladeshis and 0.9998 in Indonesians.
