Pathogen Species Identification from Metagenomes in Ancient Remains: the Challenge of Identifying Human Pathogenic Species of Trypanosomatidae Via Bioinformatic Tools

2018-07-06

Abstract excerpt

Proper species identification from ancient DNA samples is a difficult task that sheds light on the evolutionary history of pathogenic microorganisms. The field of palaeomicrobiology has undoubtedly benefited from the advent of untargeted metagenomic approaches that use next-generation sequencing methodologies. Nevertheless, assigning ancient DNA at the species level is a challenging process. Recently, the gut micr...
