Abstract
Ancient DNA research has provided important insights into the evolutionary history of Yersinia pestis during the historical plague pandemics. Future work should prioritise a more diversified approach to sampling, to ensure a broader understanding of the factors underlying pandemic onset, spread, and impact across different regions and hosts.
期刊介绍：
Trends in Microbiology serves as a comprehensive, multidisciplinary forum for discussing various aspects of microbiology, spanning cell biology, immunology, genetics, evolution, virology, bacteriology, protozoology, and mycology. In the rapidly evolving field of microbiology, technological advancements, especially in genome sequencing, impact prokaryote biology from pathogens to extremophiles, influencing developments in drugs, vaccines, and industrial enzyme research.
