    Percent genotyping success for three forensic multiplexes (Identifiler, 15 STRs; MiniFiler, 8; ESS-pentaplex, 5) in 49 challenging casework samples. Multiple overlaying points shown as grey (black if 0%). Points with dark outlines show success when excluding genotype peaks below a prescribed minimum 100RFU.
