Results |
|
| Wolbachia presence | No |
| Confidence level | High |
| Explanation of confidence level | The gel electrophoresis control positive, negative and NTC controls all came back properly concluding that the gel electrophoresis was most likely accurate enough to conclude a high confidence level on the outcome of the Wolbachia testing. |
| Wolbachia 16S sequence | |
| Arthropod COI sequence |
|
