Polymorphism of the 3′-ApoB VNTR system in a population sample from the province of Parma

DNA polymorphism (Wyman and White, 1980; Jeffreys et al., 1985) analysis has been introduced into routine casework in many forensic haemogenetics laboratories. PCR amplification (Saiki et al., 1985) of target DNA has been shown to be especially useful in typing small or partially degraded specimens.
