Profiling the dead: generating microsatellite data from fossil bones of extinct megafauna--protocols, problems, and prospects.
We present the first set of microsatellite markers developed exclusively for an extinct taxon. Microsatellite data have been analysed in thousands of genetic studies on extant species but the technology can be problematic when applied to low copy number (LCN) DNA. It is therefore rarely used on subs...
