- Title
Interpreting DNA Mixtures with Related Contributors in Subdivided Populations.
- Authors
Fung, Wing K.; Yue-Qing Hu
- Abstract
In this paper, we study the statistical interpretation of forensic DNA mixtures with related contributors in subdivided populations. Compact general formulae for match probabilities are obtained for two situations: a relative of one tested person is an unknown contributor of a DNA mixture; and two related unknowns are contributors. The effect of kinship and population structure is illustrated using a real case example.
