Methods |
|
| Extraction kit | DNeasy (Qiagen) |
| DNA extraction location | Whole arthropod |
| Single or Duplex PCR | Single Reaction |
| Gel electrophoresis system | Standard electrophoresis system |
| Buffer | TBE |
| DNA stain | GelRed |

Results |
|
| Wolbachia presence | Yes |
| Confidence level | Low |
| Explanation of confidence level | The gel image was hard to read. However I do think it is wolbachia positive because we do see a park which can possibly be the wolbachia. This sample is in the third lane. |
| Wolbachia 16S sequence | |
| Arthropod COI sequence |
|
| Summary | The Formicidae was found to be postive for Wolbachia. |
