Microsatellites used in forensics are located in regions unusually rich in trait-associated variants

2023-03-10

Abstract excerpt

The 20 short tandem repeat (STR) markers of the combined DNA index system (CODIS) are the basis of the vast majority of forensic genetics in the United States. One argument for permissive rules about the collection of CODIS genotypes is that the CODIS markers are thought to contain information relevant to identification only (such as a human fingerprint would), with little information about ancestry or traits. How...
