Abstract excerpt
The reproducibility of short tandem repeat (STR) amplification of aDNA extracts is limited by means of formation of artifacts during PCR. One of these artifacts, the so called allelic-dropout (failure of the amplification of alleles), may result in false-homozygote typing of a sample, if genotyping is based on the analysis of a single amplification product. 30 tooth- and bone samples collected from 17 individuals...
