An FBI forensic expert said a hair removed from the trunk of Casey Anthony's car is consistent with hair from a dead body.
That was the testimony of Karen Korsberg Lowe Saturday in Anthony's sensational murder trial.
The 25-year old Orlando mother is accused of killing her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.
FBI expert Lowe said she examined a light-brown, 9-inch-long hair for this case.
She said the hair was similar to one pulled from Caylee's brush and was not similar to a hair sample from Casey Anthony.
Ms Lowe also said the hair showed characteristics consistent with decomposition.
Anthony is charged with first-degree murder.
Prosecutors say the girl was suffocated after duct tape was placed over her mouth.
The defence contends she accidently drowned in her grandparents' swimming pool.
Anthony's attorney challenged Ms Lowe's qualifications as an expert in microscopic hair examinations.
Earlier, crime scene investigator Gerardo Bloise showed the court where he had found a hair in the trunk of Casey Anthony's car.
The investigator searched Anthony's car on July 17, 2008 for clues about the fate of her missing daughter. On Friday, he testified that the odour of human decomposition wafted from the interior as soon as he opened the door.
Gerardo Bloise said: 'My professional opinion is that it was human decomposition.'

For all the armchair lawyers defending this monster, I would love to hear you explain this.
This chick is toast.
I’m just plain disgusted by it all.
Oh, my bad. Wrong thread. :O)
What’s in that bag? Andre the Giant’s condom?
In the case where Gibbs had to shoot through a traitorous agent whose little sister was being held hostage, hair from a murder victim indicated that she’s been dead while her husband claimed she was a hostage. Also the little sister’s hair indicated that she was receiving some sort of nutrition.
But who knows how much was dramatic license and how much is based on reality.
Casey Anthony is a pathological liar and will be convicted...IMO.
In the next Administration, we need to push for a return to public hanging. Our Founders practiced it, so it is clearly not “Cruel and unusual”, and it would be a good lesson for the children, adults, and GUILTY-GUILTY-GUILTY monsters like this one.
