Abstract
The presence of more than one DNA contributor in an evidentiary sample may preclude attempts to use forensic genetic genealogy to develop an investigative lead. To address this issue, we developed a workflow for deconvolution of SNP mixtures into single source profiles that are suitable for matching against a genealogical database. Using the method, two-contributor DNA mixtures assayed using a commercial SNP typing kit can produce informative match results for both major and minor contributors.
