Abstract

One hundred and thirty unrelated individuals (80 females and 50 males) from Brescia (northern Italy) were typed for DXS8378, DXS7132, HPRTB and DXS7423 loci. Allele, genotype and haplotype frequencies were calculated. A comparison between our population data and others from Caucasians and Asians populations was performed.
