Regional genetic variation in Caucasians.

Forensic science international - 6 Jul 1998

Foreman L A, Lambert J A, Evett I W

Abstract excerpt

When evaluating DNA evidence, the necessary calculations are often carried out using databases drawn from broad populations; for example, the Forensic Science Service (FSS) maintains genetic databases for the 3 major racial groups of England and Wales--Caucasian, Afro-Caribbean and Asian (from the Indian subcontinent). The resulting figures may be challenged in court on the premise that they are not based on data...
