Genomic reconstruction of fossil and living microorganisms in ancient Siberian permafrost

Abstract Background Total DNA (intracellular, iDNA and extracellular, eDNA) from ancient permafrost records the mixed genetic repository of the past and present microbial populations through geological time. Given the exceptional preservation of eDNA under perennial frozen conditions, typical metage...
