A treponemal genome from an historic plague victim supports a recent emergence of yaws and its presence in 15th century Europe

11 Jun 2020

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Developments in techniques for identification of pathogen DNA in archaeological samples can expand our resolution of disease detection. Our application of a non-targeted molecular screening tool for the parallel detection of pathogens in historical plague victims from post-medieval Lithuania revealed the presence of more than one active disease in one individual. In addition to Yersinia pestis, we...
