Developing criteria and data to determine best options for expanding the core CODIS loci
Jianye Ge, Arthur Eisenberg, Bruce Budowle Investigative Genetics 2012, 3:1 (6 January 2012)
Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed
|
Editor’s summary
The rapid expansion of DNA databases over the past few years has lead to numerous problems associated with their use. In order to increase the efficiency of the Combined DNA Index System, expansions to the core loci have been suggested. Budowle et al evaluate these proposed expansions and consider the consequences of the selection of core genetic markers for forensic DNA databases.
