Interestingly, in most cases (5/9; 55%) the majority of modal alleles for the 15 loci were observed in the fortuitous matches: 9 STRs in three cases, and 10 STRs in two cases.
From this data, forensic informativeness metrics were estimated when applying the nine novel STRs in identification or kinship analyses.
The internal consistency and test-retest reliability of the STRS in the population studied were very good.
An X-chromosomal multiplex amplifying 18 STRs in one single PCR reaction was developed and optimized in this study.
The results underline the importance of the multi-InDel multiplex as a supplementary test to STRs in special cases.
Family studies can be used to measure the genetic distance between same-chromosome (syntenic) STRs in order to detect physical linkage or linkage disequilibrium.
Recently, many researchers have focused on analysis of different X-chromosomal STRs as they bear the potential to efficiently complement the analysis of autosomal and Y-chromosomal STRs in solving special complex kinship deficiency cases.
In the profiles from the 11-plex assay we observed an average 2.15% stutter ratio in all the pentameric loci compared to 7.32% across equivalently-sized tetrameric STRs in the Promega Powerplex® ESX-17 kit.
The 39 STRs comprise 23 core loci: SE33, Penta D & E, 13 CODIS and 7 non-CODIS European Standard Set STRs, plus supplementary STRs in the recently released Promega CS-7™ and Qiagen Investigator HDplex™ kits.
The second strategy employs a multiplex of six high molecular weight STRs (in current use), modified to provide smaller amplicons combined with an additional two loci of high discriminating power.
The use of SNPs as a complement to the analysis of autosomal STRs in paternity casework can result in paternity index and paternity probability values equivalent or higher than those obtained with more STR loci, but with lower costs.
