Abstract excerpt
In recent years, microhaplotypes (MHs) have become a research hotspot within the field of forensic genetics. Traditional MHs contain only SNPs that are closely linked within short fragments. Herein, we broaden the concept of general MHs to include short InDels. Complex kinship identification plays an important role in disaster victim identification and criminal investigations. For distant relatives (e.g.,...
