The Use of Y-Chromosome Profiles in Forensic Genetics
In forensic science, Y-STR testing is one of the most common tools used to interpret DNA typing results, specifically for human identification purposes (SWGDAM, 2014). With the complexity in DNA samples, not only can they be different from another individual, but each unique haplotype contains …

Evaluation of collection protocols for the recovery of biological samples from crime scenes
The main focus in forensic genetics in the past 30 years has been either to increase the efficiency of the extraction and identification of DNA from a wide variety of evidence, or to improve DNA profiling technology by making it more sensitive and robust. However, the methods used to recover DNA …

Mutation Rate Analysis of the Human Mitochondrial D-loop and its Implications for Forensic Identity Testing
… the middle 1990's the mutation rate applied to a forensic or evolutionary analysis was determined by phylogenetic means, This method involved calculating genetic distances as determined by amino acid or DNA sequence variability within or between species. The mutation rate as determined by this …
