metaJAM: a Nextflow integrated metagenomic workflow for sedimentary ancient DNA (opens in new tab)

The application of metagenomics in ancient DNA (aDNA) research is rapidly expanding, driven in particular by advances in sedimentary aDNA research and sequencing technologies. Although many ancient DNA studies rely on broadly similar bioinformatic strategies, there is still no single standardized, widely adopted workflow. These differences can directly affect how efficiently past biodiversity can be reconstructed and authenticated from the various archives analyzed using ancient metagenomic a...
