Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from the hole blood of 100 unrelated individuals of Chinese YUGU ethnic group by standard chelex-100 method. The sequence polymorphism sites was determined by PCR amplification and direct sequencing. Results 54 polymorphic sites were noted in mtDNA np16091-16418 region, and 46 haplotypes were identifi ed. The genetic diversity was calculated to be 0.9691, and the genetic identity was calculated to be 0.0406. Conclusion There are some particul ar polymorphism sites in Chinese YUGU ethnic group. The results suggest that seq uence polymorphism from np16091-16418 in human mitochondrial DNA can be used as a biological marker for forensic identity.展开更多
