Description: | |||
Forensic Genetics is based on DNA-typing. The genetic markers used, the underlying principles of specific DNA-tests and the techniques employed in DNA forensic laboratories are considered. Paternity testing and crime scene analysis are used to show the application of DNA-typing. The importance of population genetic marker allele frequencies to all types of forensic genetic analyses is emphasised. DNA databases and their implications conclude this unit. | |||
