Short tandem repeat analysis is challenging when dealing with unbalanced mixtures in forensic cases due to the presence of stutter peaks and large amplicons. In this research, we propose a novel genetic marker called DIP‐TriSNP, which combines deletion/insertion polymorphism (DIP) with tri‐allelic single nucleotide polymorphism in less than 230 bp length of human genome. Based on multiplex PCR and SNaPShot, a panel, including 14 autosomal DIP‐TriSNPs and one Y chromosomal DIP‐SNP, had been developed and applied to genotyping 102 unrelated Han Chinese individuals in Sichuan of China and simulated a mixture study. The panel sensitivity can reach as low as 0.1 ng DNA template, and the minor contributor of DNA can be detected with the highest ratio of 19:1, as indicated by the obtained results. In the Sichuan Han population, the cumulative probability of informative genotypes reached 0.997092, with a combined power of discrimination of 0.999999998801. The panel was estimated to detect more than two alleles in at least one locus in 99.69% of mixtures of the Sichuan Han population. In conclusion, DIP‐TriSNPs have shown promising as an innovative DNA marker for identifying the minor contributor in unbalanced DNA mixtures, offering advantages such as short amplifications, increased polymorphism, and heightened sensitivity.
