Can any of the more technically minded database-researchers on the list give me an answer to why detection rates using the UK's National DNA database have been declining as the database gets larger? See here: http://gizmonaut.net/blog/uk/2009/10/ndnad_more_and_less_of_the_same.html I have a purely instinctive reaction (as does the author of this blog post) that this should be the case, but I am not sure that I can explain this reaction in any more detail - can someone help?
