Population data of four X-chromosome markers in Tuscany, and their use in a deficiency paternity case.
Four X-chromosome markers (DXS101, HPRTB, DXS8377, and STRX-1) were typed in a population sample from Tuscany, Italy, using a single amplification reaction. Resolution of a deficiency paternity case involving two women (either they were half-sisters or non-relatives) was made possible by typing these marker in addition to 16 conventional autosomal markers.
