Abstract
DNA fingerprinting is proving to be of great use in the establishment of the relatedness between individuals. Models are presented to assess the probabilities of DNA fingerprints as a means of establishing the paternity of a disputed offspring. The simplest models make a variety of unrealistic assumptions and an outline is presented of how the assumptions of fingerprint band population frequency equality and mutation rate constancy can be relaxed to produce a more realistic and powerful model.
