Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA analyses are increasingly recognized as a viable option in the pursuit of DNA evidence in forensic cases for which nuclear analyses are unsuccessful or cannot be performed on the available evidence. The standard forensic mtDNA analysis at Genetic laboratory of Royal Gendarmerie (LGGR) in Morocco examines two hypervariable regions HVI and HVII in the mitochondrial DNA D-loop region, each of these regions is amplified in two pieces of approximately 250 base pairs (bp). The paper presents the results of forensic mitochondrial DNA analyses which were aimed at typing bone samples up to 52 years old.
