With the great strides made in the last ten years in the understanding of human population
variation and the detailed characterization of the genome, it is now possible to identify sets …

Forensic genetics developed from protein-based techniques a quarter of a century ago and
became famous as “DNA fingerprinting,” this being based on restriction fragment length …

The statistical evaluation of autosomal Short Tandem Repeat (STR) genotypes is based on
allele frequencies. These are empirically determined from sets of randomly selected human …

Designed as an accessible introduction to basic scientific principles and their application in

In his famous 1972 paper, Richard Lewontin used 'classical'protein-based markers to show
that greater than 85% of human genetic diversity was contained within, rather than between …
