Recovery and analysis of ancient beetle DNA from subfossil packrat middens using high-throughput sequencing
Abstract The study of ancient DNA is revolutionizing our understanding of paleo-ecology and the evolutionary history of species. Insects are essential components in many ecosystems and constitute the most diverse group of animals. Yet they are largely neglected in ancient DNA studies. We report the...
