Abstract excerpt
Short tandem repeat (STR) loci are highly informative polymorphic loci that are gaining popularity for identity testing. We have conducted parentage testing by using nine STR loci on 50 paternity trios that had been previously tested using VNTR loci. These nine unlinked STR loci are amplified in three multiplex reactions and, when examined for genetic informativeness, provide a combined average power of exclusion...
