Results |
|
| Wolbachia presence | No |
| Confidence level | High |
| Explanation of confidence level | Insects of the order Hemiptera tend to have low numbers of insects with Wolbachia. I felt confident in my results because I did not make any mistakes during the process and I strictly followed directions during all of the testing. |
| Wolbachia 16S sequence | |
| Arthropod COI sequence |
|
| Summary | The Insecta was found to be negative for Wolbachia. |
