Recent advances in forensic genetics

Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics, 2004
Like many applications of molecular diagnostics, the field of forensic biology is undergoing a phase of expansion and diversification. The growth of forensic DNA databases and adoption of sophisticated analytical methods have catalyzed this increasing role. The range of molecular markers exploited in the fight against crime is beginning to increase too,

Microhaplotypes in forensic genetics

Forensic Science International: Genetics, 2019
Microhaplotype loci (microhaps, MHs) are a novel type of molecular marker of less than 300 nucleotides, defined by two or more closely linked SNPs associated in multiple allelic combinations. The value of these markers is enhanced by massively parallel sequencing (MPS), which allows the sequencing of both parental haplotypes at each of the many ...

Forensic genetics

The Lancet, 2004
The review first summarizes the molecular biology methods used in forensic genetics in Denmark. In criminal cases, there is international consensus about investigation of Short Tandem Repeat (STR)-regions with polymerase chain reaction (PCR)based methods that are standardised through international collaboration.

PCR in forensic genetics

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2009
Since the introduction in the mid-1980s of analyses of minisatellites for DNA analyses, a revolution has taken place in forensic genetics. The subsequent invention of the PCR made it possible to develop forensic genetics tools that allow both very informative routine investigations and still more and more advanced, special investigations in cases ...

Big data in forensic genetics

Forensic Science International: Genetics, 2018
The potential and difficulties of the application of genome wide data in forensics are analyzed. We argue that, besides statistical, computational, ethical, economic and technical validation problems, the state of the art of population genetics theory is insufficient to deal with the forensic use of this type of data.

Cancerous Tissues in Forensic Genetic Analysis

Genetic Testing, 2007
Microsatellites or short tandem repeats (STRs) markers are important tools for mapping disease-causing genes by linkage, for performing investigations in forensic medicine, for population genetic studies and for studying genetic modifications in tumors.

Forensic Genetics and Genomic

2020
The application of molecular genetics technologies to the forensic field is becoming very important, demonstrating a pivotal role in cases that have to do with civil and criminal law, family law, as well as in cases of catastrophes with numerous victims.

Plant Genetics for Forensic Applications

2012
An emerging application for plant DNA fingerprinting and barcoding involves forensic investigations. Examples of DNA analysis of botanical evidence include crime scene analysis, identifying the source of commercial plant products, and investigation of trade in illicit drugs.

Forensic Genetic Databases: Ethical and Social Dimensions

2015
This article starts with a brief summary of the origins of forensic genetic profiling and databasing. It then provides a typology of forensic genetic databases and discusses key societal and ethical issues related to different configurations of forensic genetic databases across countries.
