Green – Forward and reverse primer sequence
Blue, Pink, and Orange – Repeat motif(s)
Gray – Non-repeating sequence.   
Turquoise – Repeat is part of the primer

Explanation of Duplicate Markers
Markers DYS385, DYS459, and YCAII are called "duplicate markers" since two values are present for each marker. At this time, it is not possible to determine the exact order of the two values for these markers.

We combine the two values for duplicated markers into a single value (e.g 11-12) for matching and for TMRCA calculations. However, the exact order might be 11-12 for one individual and 12-11 for another, yet both would be counted as a match.
