Abstract excerpt
The skin microbiome is a highly abundant and relatively stable source of DNA that may be utilized for human identification (HID). In this study, a set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with a high mean estimated Wright's fixation index (FST) (>0.1) and widespread abundance (found in ≥75% of samples compared) were selected from a diverse set of markers in the hidSkinPlex panel. The least absolute shrinkage...
