New Ice Age species just dropped! 🦴🧬 Check out our study in @currentbiology.bsky.social where we identified an extinct megafaunal species previously unknown to genomics from small non-diagnostic bone fragments at Denisova Cave and southern Siberia. doi.org/10.1016/j.cu...

Fun collaboration between Xiaole Lei & He Yu in Bejing, and @alexgilardet.bsky.social & @rakkel-tx.bsky.social at #CpgSthlm Of particular interest, the Altai seems to have functioned as a Long-Term Refugium (sensu Stewart et al 2010, Proc Roy B) & diversity driver. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Paleogenomics and habitat modeling reveal temperate Eurasian origins of woolly rhinoceroses
The woolly rhinoceros was a prominent Ice Age megafaunal species, and there is limited knowledge regarding its origin and responses to past glacial cycles. We sequenced 29 mitochondrial and 14 nuclear genomes from Pleistocene specimens across Eurasia and ...

Paleogenomics Reveals a Loss of Bovine Lineages in Mid-latitude Asia Over the Last 200,000 Years
Abstract. Bovines have a complex yet poorly understood evolutionary history that is characterized by admixture and diversity loss during the Late Pleistoce

Quand la laine a favorisé l’émergence d’une maladie bactérienne
Contrairement aux autres borrélioses, Borrelia recurrentis se transmet par les poux et non les tiques. Une nouvelle étude montre que cette transition s’est produit il y a 5000 ans au Néolithique, quan...

A High‐Throughput Ancient DNA Extraction Method for Large‐Scale Sample Screening
Large-scale DNA screening of palaeontological and archaeological collections remains a limiting and costly factor for ancient DNA studies. Several DNA extraction protocols are routinely used in ancie...
