Sequence investigation of 34 forensic autosomal STRs with massively parallel sequencing

Abstract STRs vary not only in the length of the repeat units and the number of repeats but also in the region with which they conform to an incremental repeat pattern. Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) offers new possibilities in the analysis of STRs since they can simultaneously sequence multipl...
