Table 1 Results of PERMANOVA Analysis on a Bray-Curtis Dissimilarity Matrix generated from Oak Tissue Samples with and without PNA clamps. The effects of clamps, tissue, species, and their interactions on the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity matrix generated from oak tissue samples following PCR 16S rRNA gene amplification with and without PNA clamps are presented. The columns include the source of variation, degrees of freedom (df), R-squared value (R²), and the p-value for each term in the model. The analysis included 999 permutations

From: Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) clamps reduce amplification of host chloroplast and mitochondria rRNA gene sequences and increase detected diversity in 16S rRNA gene profiling analysis of oak-associated microbiota
