Results |
|
| Wolbachia presence | Unknown |
| Confidence level | High |
| Explanation of confidence level | Our PCR test failed. All the DNA got leaked out of the well due to experimental error. Pipeheading was a fail after accidentally puncturing a hole at the bottom of the well. We got no results from our gel electrophoresis. |
