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,

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 inference from genetic markers

Statistical Methods in Medical Research, 1993
This review provides an overview of forensic inference from genetic markers. Because the judge and jurors are charged with decision-making, the forensic expert's job is to provide a useful summary of the evidence to the court. Hence, this review focuses on the likelihood ratio as a means of summarizing the genetic data for either criminal or civil ...

Population Genetics in Forensic DNA Typing

Science, 1991
Variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) sequences are used to link defendants with crimes by matching DNA patterns. The probative value of a match is often calculated by multiplying together the estimated frequencies with which each particular VNTR pattern occurs in a reference database.

Molecular markers used in forensic genetics

Medicine, Science and the Law, 2018
Forensic genetics is a field that has become subject to increasing interest in recent years. Both the technology and the markers used for forensic purposes have changed since the 1980s. The minisatellite sequences used in the famous Pitchfork case introduced genetics to the forensic sciences.

Genetics in Forensic Science

2018
DNA profiling is a powerful forensic technique to identify individuals because DNA is different among individuals, except for identical twins. Autosomal short tandem repeat (STR), Y chromosomal STR, and mitochondrial DNA testing have been performed for identification.

Forensic genetics

Prije više od trideset godina, Hrvatska i Sjedinjene Američke Države ušle su u povijest znanosti kao prve zemlje koje su primijenile tehnologiju DNK analize u identifikaciji žrtava iz masovnih grobnica. Bio je to presudan trenutak – ne samo za razvoj forenzične genetike, već i za čovječanstvo koje je tražilo odgovore, pravdu i istinu u najtežim ...
