Competitive mapping allows to identify and exclude human DNA contamination in ancient faunal genomic datasets

2020-03-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> After over a decade of developments in field collection, laboratory methods and advances in high-throughput sequencing, contamination remains a key issue in ancient DNA research. Currently, human and microbial contaminant DNA still impose challenges on cost-effective sequencing and accurate interpretation of ancient DNA data. <h4>Results</h4> Here we investigate whether human contaminating DN...
