With GenoProof^®2 you can conduct and evaluate population studies. The frequencies determined can be taken over into the population database.

In course of the evaluation the program determines the following statistical parameters for all investigated STR loci:

• Allele frequencies

• Genotype frequencies

• Polymorphic information content PIC

• Homozygoty h und heterozygoty HET

• Power of exclusion PE (for each marker and for the whole study)

• Paternity index PI (for each marker and for the whole study)

• Power of discrimination PD (for each marker and for the whole study)

• Mean chance of exclusion MEC (after Krüger, Desmarais, Chakraborty und Kishida)

• Gene diversity GD (only for Y-chromosomal markers)

• Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (asymptotic and as exact test)

You can use an unlimited number of samples for the study. At this you can also combine autosomal and gonosomal markers. Next to single calculations there are charts of certain results such as allele and genotype frequencies. The results of the study can be exported or used for the generation of reports. You can also share them with other users of GenoProof^®2 for instance in the context of a scientific cooperation.
