Insertion/deletion (InDel) markers have been treated as a prospective and helpful aid in the fields of forensic human identifications and biogeography origin researches for the past few years. In this study, we analyzed genetic polymorphisms and forensic efficiencies of 35 InDels in a novel multiplex PCR-InDel panel in a Chinese Mongolian group. All these 35 InDel loci were observed to conform to Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium and linkage equilibrium. The mean values of expected heterozygosity and observed heterozygosity were 0.4788 and 0.4852, respectively. Besides, the interpopulation differentiations and genetic distributions based on 35 InDels found that the Chinese Mongolian group might have closer genetic relationships and similar population genetic structures with East Asian populations.

Abstract Background Apple (Malus ssp.), one of the most important temperate fruit crops, has a long cultivation history and is economically important. To identify the genetic relationships among the apple germplasm accessions, whole-genome structural variants identified between M. domestica cultivars ‘Jonathan’ and ‘Golden Delicious’ were used. Results A total of 25,924 insertions and deletions (InDels) were obtained, from which 102 InDel markers were developed. Using the InDel markers, we found that 942 (75.3%) of the 1251 Malus accessions from 35 species exhibited a unique identity signature due to their distinct genotype combinations. The 102 InDel markers could distinguish 16.7–71.4% of the 331 bud sports derived from ‘Fuji’, ‘Red Delicious’, ‘Gala’, ‘Golden Delicious’, and other cultivars. Five distinct genetic patterns were found in 1002 diploid accessions based on 78 bi-allele InDel markers. Genetic structure analysis indicated that M. domestica showed higher genetic diversity than the other species. Malus underwent a relatively high level of wild-to-crop or crop-to-wild gene flow. M. sieversii was closely related to both M. domestica and cultivated Chinese cultivars. Conclusions The identity signatures of Malus accessions can be used to determine distinctness, uniformity, and stability. The results of this study may also provide better insight into the genetic relationships among Malus species.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the diversity and genetic relationships between lines and varieties of the sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) germplasm bank of the National Institute for Forestry, Agriculture and Livestock Research, Mexico, using AFLP and SSR markers. The molecular markers revealed robust amplification profiles and were able to differentiate the 41 genotypes of sweet sorghum evaluated. Analysis of the frequency and distribution of polymorphic fragments allowed for the detection of unique (AFLP) and rare (SSR) alleles in several genotypes (RBSS‑8, RBSS‑9, RBSS‑25, RBSS‑32, and RBSS‑37), indicating that these markers may be associated with a feature that has not yet been determined or may be useful for the identification of these genotypes. The genetic relationships indicated the presence of at least two types of sweet sorghum: a group of modern genotypes used for sugar and biofuel production, and another group consisting of historic and modern genotypes used for the production of syrups. Sweet sorghum genotypes may be used to develop new varieties with higher sugar and juice contents.

Insertion/deletion (InDel) polymorphisms, as ideal forensic markers, show useful characteristics of both SNPs and STRs, such as low mutation rate, short amplicon size and general applicability of genotyping platform, and have been used in human identification, population genetics and biogeographic research in recent years. X-chromosome genetic markers are significant in population genetic studies and indispensable complements in some complex forensic cases. However, the population genetic studies of X-chromosome InDel polymorphisms (X-InDels) still need to be explored. In this study, the forensic utility of a novel panel including 38 X-InDel markers was evaluated in a sample of Han population from Henan province in China. It is observed that the heterozygosities ranged from 0.0054 to 0.6133, and the combined discrimination power was 1–9.18 × 10−17 for males and 1–7.22 × 10−12 for females respectively. The mean exclusion chance in trios and duos were 0.999999319 and 0.999802969 respectively. Multiple biostatistics methods, such as principal component analysis, genetic distances analysis, phylogenetic reconstruction, and structure analysis was used to reveal the genetic relationships among the studied Henan Han group and other 26 reference groups from 1,000 Genomes Project. As expected, the Henan Han population was clustered with East Asian populations, and the most intimate genetic relationships existed in three Han Chinese populations from Henan, Beijing and South China, and showed significant differences compared with other continental groups. These results confirmed the suitability of the 38 X-InDel markers both in individual identification and parentage testing in Han Chinese population, and simultaneously showed the potential application in population genetics.
