    Published 2025-01-01

    Genetic markers can confirm the role of ethnicity in forensic investigations. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can be applied as a useful marker in forensic casework due to its maternal inheritance, high copy number, and strong persistence, even in degraded samples. Therefore, the present study aimed to in...
