Mitochondria are organelles that have their own (non-nuclear) genetic material (DNA). In forensic science, an unknown mtDNA sample is matched to a sample of mtDNA that was found at a crime scene.

  • The sequential order of nucleotides in the DNA mitochondrial sequence (i.e., mtDNA) can be used to identify individuals by comparing mtDNA sequences of different samples.

  • Mitochondria are only inherited from the mother, thereby mtDNA exhibits a matrilineal inheritance pattern.

  • In conclusion, in forensic science, an unknown mtDNA sample is matched to a sample of mtDNA that was found at a crime scene.
