Comparing the Performance of Double‐Stranded and Single‐Stranded DNA Libraries for Ancient Oral Microbiome Reconstruction
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.ABSTRACT
DNA library construction methods can affect the recovery of ancient DNA, thus influencing downstream analyses. While single‐stranded library preparation (ssLib) has been shown to outperform double‐stranded (dsLib) for highly degraded vertebrate host DNA, especially for samples older than 40,000 years, few studies have examined how library ...Keri Burge, Irina M.

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune cholangiopathy with polygenic architecture and unknown aetiology. Evidence links Neanderthal‐derived genetic variants to autoimmune conditions; however, their contribution to PBC susceptibility remains unexplored.Alessio Gerussi, Chiara Caime, Harold Wang, Heather J.

Heliyon, 2017 The late persistence in Southern Iberia of a Neandertal-associated Middle Paleolithic is supported by the archeological stratigraphy and the radiocarbon and luminescence dating of three newly excavated localities in the Mula basin of Murcia (Spain).João Zilhão, Daniela Anesin, Thierry Aubry, Ernestina Badal, Dan Cabanes, Martin Kehl, Nicole Klasen, Armando Lucena, Ignacio Martín-Lerma, Susana Martínez, Henrique Matias, Davide Susini, Peter Steier, Eva Maria Wild, Diego E.

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 191, Issue 1, September 2026.ABSTRACT Objective
This study provides new dental phenotypic data on the Aurignacian mandible Les Rois 2 (southwestern France). A former study of its dental morphology concluded that its taxonomic assignment to either Homo sapiens or Homo neanderthalensis was “uncertain” and could reflect a recent Neanderthal ancestry of this specimen.Jérôme Isle de Beauchaine, Gaël Becam, Florent Détroit, Fernando Ramirez Rozzi, Dominique Grimaud‐Hervé, Christine Verna +5 morewiley +1 more sourceEvaluating Rapid Extraction Methods for Recovering Ancient DNA From Archaeological Sediments
