STR Allele Frequencies from Austria

Description

Population allele frequency data for 16 autosomal Short Tandem Repeat (STR) markers from the Austrian population. Focused on core forensic markers used in European laboratories.

Usage

data(Austria)

Format

A data frame with 66 rows (alleles) and 17 columns. First column is Allele (repeat number), remaining columns are allele frequencies for each STR marker.

Details

This dataset contains allele frequencies for the following 16 STR markers: D1S1656, D2S1338, D2S441, D3S1358, D8S1179, D10S1248, D12S391, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, D22S1045, FGA, SE33, TH01, VWA.
