Endemism Versus Dispersion: Contribution of Microbial Genetics for Forensic Evidences
The characterization, analysis and validation of evidence that concludes the description of an intentional act of biocrime or bioterrorism represent the main target of microbial forensics. But, even nowadays with the most recent technical advances, it remains extremely difficult, labour-demanding and time consuming to investigate and confirm the origin of microbial strains and to identify the p...
متن کاملMicrobial Endemism and Biogeography
The topic of microbial biogeography is almost 100 years old, however, when confronted with questions about the existence and extent of endemism in the microbial world, many microbiologists respond with opinions and theoretical arguments rather than examples of well-conducted studies. We begin this chapter with an overview of this debate as it ·applies to free-living prokaryotes in part because ...

متن کاملTransitioning from Forensic Genetics to Forensic Genomics
Due to its support of law enforcement, forensics is a conservative field; nevertheless, driven by scientific and technological progress, forensic genetics is slowly transitioning into forensic genomics. With this Special Issue of Genes we acknowledge and appreciate this rather recent development by not only introducing the field of forensics to the wider community of geneticists, but we do so b...
متن کاملForensic Science International: Genetics
X chromosome short-tandem repeats (X-STR) assays are helpful in complex kinship testing cases where autosomal and Y chromosome analyses convey little information. Their application has distinct advantages in mother-son and father-daughter kinship testing. Paternal relatives can be tested even in cases of deficiency paternity [1]. The purpose of this study was to create an allele frequency datab...
