AI Article Synopsis
- Native American population data is limited, making it challenging to accurately compute statistical parameters for forensic investigations.
- To address this, more information is needed from geographically diverse tribes in North America that aren't already in existing forensic databases.
- The study utilized the Globafiler(®) PCR Amplification kit to analyze STR genotypic data from 533 individuals across 31 Native American tribes, providing population genetic estimates from 21 autosomal STRs.
Article Abstract
Native American population data are limited and thus impact computing accurate statistical parameters for forensic investigations. Thus, additional information should be generated from geographically representative tribes in North America, particularly from those that are not included in existing population databases for forensic use. The Globafiler(®) PCR Amplification kit was used to produce STR genotypic data for 533 individuals who represent 31 Native American tribal populations derived from eight geographically diverse regions in North America. Population genetic estimates from 21 autosomal STRs are reported.
