Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fingerprint is still powerful tool of personal identification. To understand the genetic background of the determination of the total ridge counts that is supposed to be a multifactorial genetic trait, we explored two approaches. Although we examined the SNPs that are highly placed on genome-wide SNPs lists in association with the total ridge counts by using “large” and “small” number groups on the samples with middle number groups, we could not get any SNPs with statistically significant.In addition, the analysis of SNPs of the causal genes of the diseases that represents fingerprint abnormality revealed no candidate polymorphisms.
