Interpreting DNA mixtures in structured populations.

Journal of forensic sciences - 1 Sept 1999

Curran J M, Triggs C M, Buckleton J, Weir B S

Abstract excerpt

DNA profiles from multiple-contributor samples are interpreted by comparing the probabilities of the profiles under alternative propositions. The propositions may specify some known contributors to the sample and may also specify a number of unknown contributors. The probability of the alleles carried by the set of people, known or unknown, depends on the allelic frequencies and also upon any relationships among...
