Discovery and characterization of highly polymorphic ultra-short STRs for human identification via shotgun sequencing

2026-08-07

Abstract excerpt

Shotgun sequencing (SGS) enables simultaneous interrogation of a broad range of loci across the human genome, even from low-template and highly degraded DNA samples. While human identification traditionally relies on short tandem repeats (STRs) due to their high polymorphism, standard forensic STRs (100-450 bp) are poorly suited for the short read (∼150 bp) constraint of SGS. The purpose of this study was to evalu...
