Hi thanks for asking question in HCM.
The paternity testing is the type of DNA profiling with the help of PCR or RFLP.
This study done at genetic level.There are no evidence present regarding affection of paternity testing by rh factor.
So Rh factor usually not lead to false negative result according to me.
You have not mentioned blood group of father.According to father and mother group , group of child can be determined.
Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
