Removing reference bias and improving indel calling in ancient DNA data analysis by mapping to a sequence variation graph

2019-09-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> During the last decade, the analysis of ancient DNA (aDNA) sequence has become a powerful tool for the study of past human populations. However, the degraded nature of aDNA means that aDNA molecules are short and frequently mutated by post-mortem chemical modifications. These features decrease read mapping accuracy and increase reference bias, in which reads containing non-reference alleles ar...
