Unraveling the mitochondrial phylogenetic landscape of Thailand reveals complex admixture and demographic dynamics.

The evolutionary dynamics of mitochondrial DNA within the Thai population were comprehensively explored with a specific focus on the influence of South Asian admixture. A total of 166 samples were collected through randomized sampling, ensuring a diverse representation. Our findings unveil substantial genetic and haplogroup diversity within the Thai population.

The concordance of length- and sequence-based STRs used in forensic markers with guidance for practice.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has shed light on every aspect of genetic discoveries, including forensic genetics. The Miseq® FGx Forensic Genetic System (Verogen) is one of the pioneering forensic NGS that provided a complete system from library preparation to data analysis. The system has been validated by several studies and led to a more practical aspect.
