ABSTRACT In the last three decades, DNA sequencing of ancient animal osteological assemblages has become an important tool complementing standard archaeozoological approaches to reconstruct the history of animal domestication. However, osteological assemblages of key archaeological contexts are not always available or do not necessarily preserve enough

ABSTRACT Numerous specimens stored in natural history collections have been involuntarily preserved together with their associated microbiomes. We propose exploiting century‐old soils occasionally found on the roots of herbarium plants to assess the diversity of ancient soil microbial communities originally associated with these plants.

wholeskim: Utilising Genome Skims for Taxonomically Annotating Ancient DNA Metagenomes
ABSTRACT Inferring community composition from shotgun sequencing of environmental DNA is highly dependent on the completeness of reference databases used to assign taxonomic information as well as the pipeline used. While the number of complete, fully assembled reference genomes is increasing rapidly, their taxonomic coverage is generally too sparse to
