Sequence Analysis of Mitochondrial DNA Hypervariable Regions Using Infrared Fluorescence Detection

The non-coding region of the mitochondrial genome provides an attractive target for human forensic identification studies. Two hypervariable (HV) regions, each approximately 250–350 bp in length, contain the majority of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence variability among different individuals. Vari...
