Ancient DNA from Human and Animal
Research on ancient DNA (aDNA) has the potential to enable molecular biologists and archeologists to decipher certain aspects of history by direct looking into the past. However, several major problems in this field limit the applicability of aDNA studies, most importantly contamination with modern DNA and postmortem DNA degradation. In this study we extracted and analyzed aDNA obtained from ~3...
متن کاملReconstructing ancient mitochondrial DNA links between Africa and Europe.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages of macro-haplogroup L (excluding the derived L3 branches M and N) represent the majority of the typical sub-Saharan mtDNA variability. In Europe, these mtDNAs account for <1% of the total but, when analyzed at the level of control region, they show no signals of having evolved within the European continent, an observation that is compatible with a recent arriv...
متن کاملAncient DNA: A window to the past of Europe.
OBJECTIVES The history of European populations is characterised by numerous migrations or demographic events that are likely to have had major impacts on the European gene pool patterns. This paper will focus on how ancient DNA (aDNA) data contribute to our understanding of past population dynamics in Europe. METHODS Technological challenges of the palaeogenetic approach will be discussed. Wi...

متن کاملAncient DNA
Ancient DNA is a field of molecular evolutionary biology that usesDNA sequence data recovered frompoorly preserved organisms, usually deceased for hundreds to hundreds of thousands of years. Ancient DNA data can provide unique snapshots in time to better understand how populations and species evolve. The field was born in the early 1980s,when thefirst ancientDNAsequences were recovered from pre...
