genetic polymorphisms of 54 mitochondrial dna snp loci in chinese xibe ethnic Minority Group
Scientific Reports, 2017Co-Authors: Chunmei Shen, Bofeng Zhu, Chunhua Yang, Caiyong Yin, Haotian Meng, Yuxin Guo, Ting Mei, Feng ChenAbstract:We analyzed the genetic polymorphisms of 54 mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants in Chinese Xibe ethnic Minority Group. A total of 137 unrelated healthy volunteers from Chinese Xibe Group were the objects of our study. Among the selected loci, there were 51 variable positions including transitions and transversions, and single nucleotide transitions were common (83.93%) versus transversions. These variations defined 64 different mtDNA haplotypes exclusive of (CA)n and 9 bp deletion variation. The haplotype diversity and discrimination power in Xibe population were 0.9800 ± 0.004 and 0.9699, respectively. Besides, we compared Xibe Group with 18 other populations and reconstructed a phylogenetic tree using Neighbor-Joining method. The result revealed that Xibe Group was a close to Xinjiang Han and Yanbian Korean Groups. Our data also indicated that Xibe Group has a close relationship with Daur and Ewenki Groups, which is reflected by the history that Xibe was influenced by Daur and Ewenki Groups during the development of these Groups. In conclusion, the variants we studied are polymorphic and could be used as informative genetic markers for forensic and population genetic application.

allelic frequency distributions of 21 non combined dna index system str loci in a russian ethnic Minority Group from inner mongolia china
Journal of Zhejiang University-science B, 2013Co-Authors: Hongdan Wang, Chunmei Shen, Wenjuan Liu, Yudang Zhang, Guang Yang, Jiangwei Yan, Haixia Qin, Bofeng ZhuAbstract:We studied the allelic frequency distributions and statistical forensic parameters of 21 new short tandem repeat (STR) loci and the amelogenin locus, which are not included in the combined DNA index system (CODIS), in a Russian ethnic Minority Group from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. A total of 114 bloodstain samples from unrelated individuals were extracted and co-amplified with four fluorescence-labeled primers in a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system. Using capillary electrophoresis, the PCR products of the 21 STR loci were separated and genotyped. A total of 161 alleles were observed in the Russian ethnic Minority Group, and corresponding allelic frequencies ranged from 0.0044 to 0.5965. The 21 non-CODIS STR loci of the Russian ethnic Minority Group were characterized by high genetic diversity and therefore may be useful for elucidating the population’s genetic background, for individual identification, and for paternity testing in forensic practice.

population data of 15 str loci of chinese yi ethnic Minority Group
Legal Medicine, 2008Co-Authors: Bofeng Zhu, Chunmei Shen, Yajun DengAbstract:Abstract Allele frequency data and statistical parameters for D8S1179, D21S11, D7S820, CSF1PO, D3S1358, TH01, D13S317, D16S539, D2S1338, D19S433, vWA, TPOX, D18S51, D5S818 and FGA loci were determined in a sample of 120 healthy unrelated individuals of Chinese Yi ethnic Minority Group living in Yunnan province, China. We observed 132 alleles with allelic frequencies ranging from 0.0042 to 0.5333. The forensic statistical parameters from the data of all the loci showed high values. All loci were in accordance with Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium ( p >0.05). The obtained frequency distributions were compared with previously published other population data, and significant differences were found between Yi population and Korean, Chinese Tibetan, Uigur, Ewenki, Han, Hui population at some STR loci. Our results of present study were valuable for forensic application and Chinese population genetic studies. These population data enriched Chinese genetic informational resources.

population genetic analysis of 15 str loci of chinese tu ethnic Minority Group
Forensic Science International, 2008Co-Authors: Bofeng Zhu, Chunmei Shen, Jiangwei Yan, Yajun Deng, Xin Xiong, Yanqing HuangAbstract:We studied and established a DNA database of 15 euchromosome STRs (D8S1179, D21S11, D7S820, CSF1PO, D3S1358, TH01, D13S317, D16S539, D2S1338, D19S433, vWA, TPOX, D18S51, D5S818 and FGA) in a population sample of 151 unrelated individuals of Tu ethnic Minority Group. Allelic frequencies and statistical parameters of Tu population were calculated. Totally 136 alleles were observed, with the corresponding allelic frequencies ranging from 0.0033 to 0.5359. Chi-square test showed that all STR loci agreed with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Our study population data were compared with the previously publishing population data of other ethnic Groups or areas. Our results of present study were valuable for human identification and paternity tests in Chinese Tu population.

population genetic polymorphisms for 17 y chromosomal strs haplotypes of chinese salar ethnic Minority Group
Legal Medicine, 2007Co-Authors: Chunmei Shen, Jiangwei Yan, Bofeng Zhu, Xi Xun, Yajun Deng, Jun Zhu, Yao LiuAbstract:We studied and established a DNA database of 17 Y-STRs in a population sample of 133 unrelated individuals of Salar ethnic Minority Group, in order to investigate haplotype frequencies of Salar population, evaluate their usefulness in forensic applications, and enrich Chinese population genetic informational resources. Out of a total of 133 individuals 123 showed different haplotypes, while six haplotypes occurred more than once. The overall haplotype diversity for the Y-STRs loci was 0.9983, and the discrimination capacity was 0.9248.

backlash the politics and real world consequences of Minority Group dehumanization
Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, 2017Co-Authors: Nour Kteily, Emile BruneauAbstract:Research suggests that members of advantaged Groups who feel dehumanized by other Groups respond aggressively. But little is known about how meta-dehumanization affects disadvantaged Minority Group members, historically the primary targets of dehumanization. We examine this important question in the context of the 2016 U.S. Republican Primaries, which have witnessed the widespread derogation and dehumanization of Mexican immigrants and Muslims. Two initial studies document that Americans blatantly dehumanize Mexican immigrants and Muslims; this dehumanization uniquely predicts support for aggressive policies proposed by Republican nominees, and dehumanization is highly associated with supporting Republican candidates (especially Donald Trump). Two further studies show that, in this climate, Latinos and Muslims in the United States feel heavily dehumanized, which predicts hostile responses including support for violent versus non-violent collective action and unwillingness to assist counterterrorism effort...

Forensic Science International, 2006Co-Authors: Bofeng Zhu, Jun Zhu, Shunzhi Liu, Jingfeng Huang, Youcai Wang, Liping Chen, Qianzi Zhao, Yao LiuAbstract:Y-chromosomal STRs loci were analyzed from a sample of 119 healthy unrelated autochthonous male individuals of Chinese Tibetan ethnic Minority Group using a multiplex PCR system. Allele and haplotype frequencies for DYS19, DYS389 I, DYS389 II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS385a,b, DYS438, and DYS439 were determined by the Y-PLEXtrade mark 12 kit. The gene diversity values for the Y-STRs loci ranged from 0.3347 (DYS438) to 0.9547 (DYS385a,b). A total of 110 haplotypes were identified in the Y-STR loci, among which 104 were unique, while six occurred more than once. The overall haplotype diversity for the Y-STRs loci was 0.9981, and the discrimination capacity was 0.9897. The results in the present study can be used for routine forensic application in the region, and enrich Chinese ethnical genetic informational resources.
