Improving Species Identification of Ancient Mammals Based on Next-Generation Sequencing Data

Improving Species Identification of Ancient Mammals Based on Next-Generation Sequencing Data

The taxonomical identification merely based on morphology is often difficult for ancient remains. Therefore, universal or specific PCR amplification followed by sequencing and BLAST (basic local alignment search tool) search has become the most frequently used genetic-based method for the species id...
