Ancient DNA fragments are typically ultrashort, often less than 100 bp.
“Small amounts of preserved DNA and extensive DNA fragmentation to lengths <100 bp 109 pose serious challenges for extracting DNA molecules from ancient samples.”
From Ancient DNA analysis (2021) · cites this paper as [109]
The FRAGMENTATION section says that DNA from almost all ancient remains is degraded into short fragments, citing a range of 40–500 bp in an early study. It does not establish that fragments are typically shorter than 100 bp; the reported range extends well above that threshold. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredPostmortem alterations potentially hinder manipulation of ancient DNA and reduce the amount of retrievable genetic information.
“These postmortem alterations potentially hinder the manipulation of aDNA and reduce the amount of retrievable genetic information 109,120 .”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
