Results |
|
Wolbachia presence | No |
Confidence level | Medium |
Explanation of confidence level | The positive controls (b.2, c.4) and negative controls (b.3, c.3) both worked, and the Ananca bicolor sample tested positive for Arthropod CO1 (e.2, e.3), so the DNA extraction for the A. bicolor samples was successful. |
Wolbachia 16S sequence | |
Arthropod COI sequence |
|
Summary | The Ananca bicolor was found to be negative for Wolbachia. |
