Abstract excerpt
Alleles at 12 Short Tandem Repeat loci have been sequenced to investigate candidate loci for a multiplex Short Tandem Repeat system for forensic identification, and for single-locus amplification of Short Tandem Repeat loci. Variation from the consensus sequence was found at 6 loci, while one loc...
