DNA extracted from boiled archival fish bones yields high‐quality whole‐genome sequencing data

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Archival samples provide a unique source of organismal DNA, offering the potential to extend the temporal scale of genetic studies by decades to centuries. Fish hard structures, such as otoliths and scales, serve as records for fish collected during fisheries monitoring across a large spatiotemporal scale.
