Abstract excerpt
The de facto genetic markers of forensics are short tandem repeats (STRs). There are many analytical tools designed to work with STRs, including techniques for analyzing and assessing DNA mixtures. In contrast, the nascent field of forensic genetic genealogy often relies on biallelic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Tools designed for the forensic assessment of SNPs are somewhat lacking, especially for DNA...
