Abstract

X chromosomal short tandem repeat (STR) loci can be used in combination with autosomal STRs to solve cases of complex kinship. In order to properly apply STR results to forensic cases, population databases must be established to which comparisons can be made and the rarity of profiles determined. Here, a population from Bosnia and Herzegovina was studied to determine the appropriate forensic efficiency parameters with 14 widely used X chromosomal STR loci.
