Verification of assay on amplified libraries with shotgun sequencing data.
1<p>As discussed in the methods section, the assay percentages are meant as a guide to compare samples and are not expected to match the absolute values yielded via shotgun sequencing.</p>2<p>The scaled shotgun sequencing results do not include reads without BLAST matches or reads which matched higher taxonomic levels (e.g., eukaryotes or metazoa).</p>3<p><i>N/A</i> indicates the primer set did not fluoresce before the negative control for the sample.</p
Directions to interpret qPCR assay data.
<p>Follow the questions in the flowchart to compare the endogenous DNA content of different ancient plant samples. The least contaminated samples are best suited for shotgun sequencing.</p

DNA yield from extractions, phase 2.
<p>Maximum amount of DNA recovered in each specimen listed by corresponding symbol.</p
Error rates of most frequent substitution types.
<p>High-low chart depicts the maximum and minimum error rates within the three tested samples. Median values, represented by circles, are not included for PfuTurbo C<sub>x</sub> because only two samples were amplified.</p
