Phylogenetic classification of Japanese mtDNA assisted by complete mitochondrial DNA sequences.

abstract：:In Japan and elsewhere, ABO genotyping is frequently used in forensic practice for identification of a decomposed body. However, the phenotype deduced from the genotyping data is occasionally inconsistent with the real phenotype. In this paper, we report a simple ABO genotyping method in which five single nucleotide p...
