Does anyone know the expected life span of a piece of free DNA in soil or
anaerobic sediments ?  Is the expected life span ( half life?) related to
M.W. ? or single or double strandenness ?  I would apprecite any references
that anyone mightknow of,  paraticularly to anaerobic environments.

Thanks to all who read this requiest.
