Ancient DNA from 120-Million-Year-Old Lycoptera Fossils Reveals Evolutionary Insights [PDF]
High quality ancient DNA (aDNA) is essential for molecular paleontology. Due to DNA degradation and contamination by environmental DNA (eDNA), current research is limited to fossils less than 1 million years old. The study successfully extracted DNA from Lycoptera davidi fossils from the Early Cretaceous period, dating 120 million years ago. Using high-

Emerging Challenges in Molecular Paleontology: Misapplication of Environmental DNA Fragments and Misconception of Deamination as a Key Criterion for In Situ DNA Identification [PDF]
This article critically examines the methodologies applied in ancient DNA (aDNA) research, particularly those developed by Dr. P\"a\"abo's team, which have significantly influenced the field. The focus is on the challenges of distinguishing original in situ DNA (oriDNA) from environmental DNA (eDNA) contamination in fossil samples.
