Abstract

Blood samples were collected from the unreleatled individuals in the Achang ethnic group in Yunnan Province. Genetic distribution for nine STR loci and amelogenin locus were determined in Achang ethnic group based on GeneScan. 96 samples were denatured of gel electrophoresis. The databanks in Achang ethnic group were generated by using GeneScan, genotyper, and genetic distribution analysis. 69 alleses and 166 genotypers were observed, with the corresponding frequency being 0.0050-0.6100 and 0.0100-0.3900. The average H is 0.7381. The comulated DP is 0.9999999. The comulated EPP is 0.9999989. The allele distribution of the loci was in good agreement with the Handy-Weibeng equilibrium. It is useful to establishing DNA databanks for studying gene natural resources, very valuable in the study of forensic science, anthropology and ethnic.
