A cautionary note on the evaluation of genetic evidence from uniparentally transmitted markers.

Forensic science international. Genetics - 1 Sept 2008

Amorim António

Abstract excerpt

The combination of the information obtained from lineage genetic markers, such as mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the non-homologous region of Y-chromosome, with data resulting from meiotically recombining loci (diploid/autosomal or haplodiploid/X chromosome) into a single likelihood ratio has been recently proposed. In this work we challenge this proposal and demonstrate that while the genetic evidence obtained...
