In the five years after the previous release, continued study into how the database may best assist forensics has led to considerable redesign of the database interface and functionality. The Forensic Resource/Reference on Genetics-knowledge base was first introduced in 2011. FROG-kb is a publicly available online interface that supports forensic practice and can be helpful for teaching and research. It was initially created as a prototype to support the forensic usage of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs). The web interface has been modified for simpler navigating across the many components based on information gained through its use. The website also offers new reference panels of SNPs with newly curated data, significant new documentation, and functional improvements. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are the emphasis of FROG-kb, which also supplies reference population da.. View More»
