Editing DNA paternity testing (section)

==Reverse paternity testing==
Reverse paternity determination is the ability to establish the biological father when the father of that person is not available. The test uses the STR [[alleles]] in the mother and her child, other children and brothers of the alleged father, and the deduction of the genetic constitution of the father by the basis of genetic laws, all to create a rough amalgamation. This can compare the father's DNA when a direct sample of the father's DNA is unavailable. An episode of ''[[Solved (TV series)|Solved]]'' shows this test being used to know if a blood sample matches the victim of a kidnapping.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Mixich |first=Francisc |last2=Ioana |first2=Mihai |last3=Mixich |first3=Vlad A. |date=2004-12-02 |title=Paternity analysis in special fatherless cases without direct testing of alleged father |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0379073804005304?via=ihub |journal=Forensic Science International |series=Mediterranean Academy of Forensic Sciences 1st Workshop |volume=146 |pages=S159–S161 |doi=10.1016/j.forsciint.2004.09.048 |issn=0379-0738|url-access=subscription }}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Gehl |first=Rod |last2=Plecas |first2=Darryl |date=2017-08-01 |title=Chapter 10: Forensic Sciences |url=https://pressbooks.bccampus.ca/criminalinvestigation/chapter/chapter-10-forensic-sciences/ |language=en-ca}}</ref>
