Results |
|
| Wolbachia presence | No |
| Confidence level | High |
| Explanation of confidence level | I am highly confident as all of my controls worked as expected. Additionally, I did not have any problems with the protocol, and I was not surprised by any bands on the gel. Therefore, I am confident my arthropod is not infected with Wolbachia. |
