title: PCR libraries of ancient DNA using a generalized PCR method.
abstract: We describe a generalized PCR method that will amplify fragments of DNA without any knowledge of sequence using a single primer. Although we are presently using this method to amplify DNA fragments isolated from ancient preserved tissues, in effect, producing PCR libraries, it may prove to have other applications.
