Abstract: The aim of this paper is to present some methods used in forensic genetics. Forensic genetics is only one part of a wide spectrum of sciences called forensics. It includes identification of victims of natural disasters, mass transportation accidents and industry accidents. It also includes identification of offenders of a crime and determination of paternity. Our current work involves analysis of the genetic data from the Czech population. Therefore and in concordance with other international studies, we focus on methods used in analysis of the genetic profiles of the STR (short tandem repeat) polymorphisms.
Keywords: forensic genetics; identification; statistical methods; STR
