Explanation of confidence level

I believe my insect does not have Wolbachia due to it not showing a second band. Additionally, my insect belongs to the Hymenoptera order and based on my insect order chart, there is low prevalence for Wolbachia; about approx. less than 8% (~8).

Wolbachia 16S sequence
Arthropod COI sequence
Summary The Insecta was found to be negative for Wolbachia.
