Here is an example using 3 CODIS STR results. DNA evidence was
found at a crime scene. Due to the poor quality of the DNA sample,
only 3 of the 13 CODIS STRs could be determined. The table below
lists the analytical results for the three STRs in the second and
third columns (Allele A and Allele B).
Homework Answers
1. The correct answer is option A, TH01.
As it has two identical alleles i.e. 4.
2. The correct answer is option A, allele 7 in D21S11.
As the probability of this particular allele is lowest, p=0.1.
3. The correct answer is option A, allele 11 at D3S1358, allele 4 at TH01, allele 10 at D21S11
As all these alleles have the same probabillity, p=0.5
4. Genotype frequency for D3S1358 = 2pq= 2(0.5x0.2)= 0.2.
5. Genotype frequency for TH01= 
= 0.5x0.5 = 0.25.
6. Genotype frequency for D21S11= 2pq = 2(0.1x0.5)= 0.1.
7. Probability of a random individual to have these 3 genotypes for STR loci = (0.2x0.25x0.1)= 0.005

Most of our DNA sequence is identical, however there are places in the genome quence can vary from person to person. These variations are where thee sts use one type of highly variable polymorphisms for DNA analysis. STRs (short called polymorphisms.

When there is a match between a forensic DNA sample collected
at a crime scene and DNA subpoenaed from a suspect, the genotype
frequency can be interpreted in two ways. In one sense, it is the
probability of finding that specific genotype in the population. In
another sense it is the probability that the match is due to
chance.

2.3 Problem 3 The Hardy-Weinberg equation is useful for predicting the percent of a hu- man population that may be heterozygous carriers of recessive alleles for certain genetic diseases. Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a human metabolic dis- order that results in mental retardation if it is untreated in infancy. In the United States, one out of approximately 10.000 babies is born with the disor- der. Approximately what percent of the population are heterozygous carriers of the recessive PKU allele? If you...

On the island of Notion, in the Factotum Archipelago, there lives a population of pencil bears. A portion of these bears have silky fur, and as a result, are much better surfers. The texture of the fur is determined by a single autosomal locus with two alleles: S (trait allele) and s (wild type allele). In a recent study, researched collected the values in the following table: Table 1. Counts of Pencil Bear fur style by genotype Phenotype Genotype Silky...

Part 3: Identify Associations Using Real Data (where the
associations are not 100%)
When researchers scan the genome using thousands of markers to
identify variations that are associated with particular phenotypes,
they need techniques to evaluate the strength of the associations
so that they know which SNPs are closest to the locations of the
genes of interest. You will do a short exercise to help you
understand how this is done, followed by a chi-square test on one
of the...

In recent years, some leopard populations have suffered from a loss of habitat. You are part of a research team that is studying the effects that decreased range has on these populations. Your team observed that a portion of one population relocated to the desert and merged with another small leopard population after its own habitat was threatened by deforestation. You have been assigned to lead the study of this new population and look at its gene pool make-up. In...
