Folsomia candida, control treatment – replicate 3
Springtails were sampled from a population kept in standardized culturing conditions for several years. Four replicate samples were collected, each consisting of ten animals, and used for DNA isolation and targeted PCR. Each sample was amplified using two different approaches, “Suppression” and “Control”. The Control treatment consisted of a direct PCR with primers 357F and 518R, with appropriate barcodes and Illumina linkers.
