7. Fig. 6
Visualization of genomic DNA and PCR products on 0.8% and 2.0% agarose gels, respectively. Lane 1 shows the genomic DNA of one of the four claws. Lanes 4 and 7 show the PCR-amplified products of the cyt b and 16S rRNA genes, respectively. Lanes 2, 5 and 8 are negative controls. Lanes 3, 6 and 9 show a molecular weight marker of 100bp.
