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, 2007Microsatellites 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.

Plant Genetics for Forensic Applications
2012An 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.

Recent advances in forensic genetics
Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics, 2004Like 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,

Forensic Genetic Databases: Ethical and Social Dimensions
2015This 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.

Statistical Genetics and Genetical Statistics: a Forensic Perspective*
Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, 2002This review paper focuses on forensic aspects of the relation between statistics and genetics. Some of the scientific achievements of the Swedish psychiatrist and geneticist Erik Essen‐Möller may be viewed in the above interdisciplinary context. In a number of situations the correct familial relation between a group of individuals is required.

SNP Typing in Forensic Genetics: A Review
2004Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are emerging as new markers of interest to the forensic community because of their abundance in the human genome, their low mutation rate, the opportunity they present of analyzing smaller fragments of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) than with short tandem repeats--important in degraded DNA samples--and the ...
