From the field to the laboratory: Controlling DNA contamination in human ancient DNA research in the high-throughput sequencing era
High-Throughput DNA Sequencing (HTS) technologies have changed the way in which we detect and assess DNA contamination in ancient DNA studies. Researchers use computational methods to mine the large quantity of sequencing data to detect characteristic patterns of DNA damage, and to evaluate the auth...
