Abstract excerpt
It is well known in forensic genetics that mutations on STR loci need not lead to genetic inconsistencies between the genotypes of parents and children (cf. [3,6,1]). In this article we look at a generalization of this phenomenon of "hidden" mutations: we investigate the probability with which a mutation of d repeat units appears to be one of k<d repeat units, in the sense that a mutation of k repeat units is...
