Nowadays, the use of Y-chromosome polymorphisms forms an essential part of many
forensic DNA investigations. However, this was not always the case. Only since 1992 have …

Sequence polymorphisms were characterized at 27 autosomal STRs (A-STRs), 7 X
chromosomal STRs (X-STRs), and 24 Y chromosomal STRs (Y-STRs) in 635 Northern Han …

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) analyzed a set of 1036
samples representing four major US population groups (African American, Asian American …

Forensically relevant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can provide valuable
supplemental information to short tandem repeats (STRs) for investigative leads, and …

Abstract Background Massively Parallel Sequencing (MPS) allowed an increased number of
information to be retrieved from short tandem repeat (STR) analysis, expanding them not …

If Y-STR profiling is to be more effective in criminal casework, the methods used to evaluate
evidential weight require improvement. Many forensic scientists assign an evidential weight …

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has shed light on every aspect of genetic
discoveries, including forensic genetics. The Miseq® FGx Forensic Genetic System …

Y-chromosome short tandem repeat (Y-STR) is an important type of genetic markers in the
human genome, widely used in molecular anthropology and forensic genetics. However …

STRs are the most commonly used forensic genetic markers for human identification.
Nanopore sequencing has shown the advantages of high portability and large data …
