Janelle Pokorski and Tenesha Cook used PCR to amplify the petB region of DNAs extracted from four orchid species: Sedirea japonica, Podangis dactyloceras, Cleisostoma teres, and Papilionanthe vandarum. A total of nine samples (two for each species and a negative control) were then used for gel electrophoresis to obtain the following results:
