Evaluation of diallelic STR markers with inter-population allelic database for their usefulness in paternity trios in the Central Indian population.

Background: Most of the forensic DNA laboratories have migrated to new generation STR kits of 6 dye chemistry with more than 20 autosomal STRs. The population-specific databases of such STR markers are lacking in many regions.

Aim: To evaluate the effect of the inter-population database in 100 paternity trios with no inconsistencies at 23 STRs.
