As part of the discovery phase of our studies, data on 130 microhaplotype loci with estimates of haplotype frequency data on 83 populations have been published. Microhaplotypes have great ability to identify and deconvolute mixtures because massively parallel sequencing (MPS) allows the alleles (haplotypes) of the multi-SNP loci to be determined directly for an individual [1] . Thus, MPS provides phase-known data, in contrast to conventional Sanger sequencing, at any locus with two or more heterozygous SNPs. Microhaplotype loci have several desirable characteristics including, by definition, multiple alleles. Sets of microhaplotype loci can be optimized to be useful for individual identification, determining biological relationships, providing information on particular phenotypes, providing information on biogeographic ancestry, or, as noted above, deconvolution of a mixture.	./cache/cord-012356-lmnccks8.txt	./txt/cord-012356-lmnccks8.txt
