Comparing Ancient DNA Preservation in Petrous Bone and Tooth Cementum.

Comparing Ancient DNA Preservation in Petrous Bone and Tooth Cementum.

Large-scale genomic analyses of ancient human populations have become feasible partly due to refined sampling methods. The inner part of petrous bones and the cementum layer in teeth roots are currently recognized as the best substrates for such research. We present a comparative analysis of DNA pre...
