ABSTRACT:
Methods and reagents for determining an individual's genotype at the .sup.G .gamma.-globin locus with respect to a set of three alleles using sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes enable one to type samples from a variety of sources, including samples comprising RNA or cDNA templates, and can be applied to nucleic acids in which a target region spanning the polymorphism has first been amplified. This three-allele system facilitates typing tissue for determining individual identity and has application in the field of forensic science.
