New Zealand Huhu 16S amplicon
Comparison of 16S DNA and cDNA collected from New Zealand Huhu gut contents
The guts were collected from a few Huhu grubs living in the ground logs of Pinus Radiata in Rotorua. The guts were homogenised before half was extracted for DNA and the other half extracted for RNA before proceeding with amplification and sequencing.
The guts from New Zealand huhu grubs were collected and used for comparison of the active and total microbial populations present using 16S amplicon sequencing.
