Mitochondrial DNA analysis is an alternative to conventional STR typing for challenging samples because of its characteristic high copy number. Traditionally, Sanger-based sequencing methods have been used for whole mitochondrial genome sequencing, but labor-intensive workflows and limited multiplexing ability present significant limitations. The evolution of massively parallel sequencing (MPS) provides a method for higher sample […]
