Abstract excerpt
Many forensic genetic trace samples are of too low quality to obtain short tandem repeat (STR) DNA profiles as the nuclear DNA they contain is highly degraded (e.g., telogen hairs). Instead, performing shotgun DNA sequencing of such samples can provide valuable information on, e.g., single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. As a result, shotgun sequencing is starting to gain more attention in forensic...
