Table 15. Determining the genotypes of Árpád

Dynasty

Kings using PCR A-STR and next generation sequencing (NGS) analyses from the bone samples of Béla

III

and skeleton II/52_3. A-STR analyses were performed at the same time in the Göttingen

laboratory

and one of the Budapest laboratories (number 1 ), while the NGS data came from the other Budapest laboratory (number 2). The table shows the allele lengths of individual consensus markers. The markers for which the allele lengths determined by PCR for Béla

III

and skeleton II/52_3 were different from each other are marked with *. Identical allele lengths, whichever methods were used to obtain them, are highlighted in bold. For marker SE33, the data is scattered to such an extent that we believe a severe PCR artifact is present, and thus we do not take this marker into account in determining the Árpád

Dynasty

genotype, n.a.: no data, n.v.a.: no valid data.
