Fossil avian eggshell preserves ancient DNA

Owing to exceptional biomolecule preservation, fossil avian eggshell has been used extensively in geochronologyand palaeodietary studies. Here, we show, to our knowledge, for the first time that fossil eggshell is apreviously unrecognized source of ancientDNA (aDNA).We describe the successful isolat...
