    (A) A DIP–STR marker is composed of a DIP polymorphism (S/L alleles) linked to an STR polymorphism (e.g., 3/4 repeats). Arrows indicate PCR primers. (B) DIP–STR results of the mixed stain A, 1μl diluted 1/20 DNA was amplified with S-DIP and STR primers (left panel) and 2μl of DNA with L-DIP and STR primers (right panel). This last shows the positive amplification of the minor DNA component of the mixture which matches one of the suspects.
