| Abstract: | Molecular studies using trace DNA, such as from museum specimens, ancient or forensic samples and samples obtained noninva- sively, often have a common problem of low quality of DNA templates. Amplification errors, such as allelic dropout and false allele, may arise during polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using such samples. A mathematical model which treats homozygotes and heterozygotes discriminately has been developed to measure sample quality and compute the confidence level of using multiple- tube appro... |
