High DNA yield from metatarsal and metacarpal bones from Slovenian Second World War skeletal remains

Tomaz Zupanc et al.

Summary: The research focused on exploring interand intra-individual variation in DNA content, determining the most promising skeletal elements for bone sampling, and finding bones that yield the most complete profiles. The study examined a single Second World War mass grave, analyzing different types of bones from three complete male skeletons to investigate DNA content and rates of DNA degradation, with promising results from metacarpals, metatarsals, and the petrous portion of the temporal bone.
