Abstract
DNA markers on the X-chromosome have been shown to be a powerful tool for solving complex relationship cases such as deficiency paternity testing, mother–son, father–daughter, grandmother–granddaughter, putative sisters kinship testing. Male individuals inherit their one X-Chr from their mother, while female individuals receive one X from the mother and the other one from the father. So, females fathered by the same man share their paternal chromosome X [ 1 Szibor R. Krawczak M. Hering S. Edelmann J. Kuhlisch E. Krause D. Use of X-linked markers for forensic purposes. Int. J.
