Expanded and mega-plex STR panels as a tool for presumptive population assignment

Abstract: Historically, forensic STR panels have been unsuccessful for population assignment due to the limited ancestry information that can be derived from the non-coding STR loci and the low number of loci included in the panel. However, given the recent adoption of expanded (16+ loci) and 'mega-plex' (23+ loci) STR panels, the ability to identify source population groups may be improved. This study assessed the impact of increasing locus number on population assignment under different analysis conditions using a pub… Show more
