Table 1 The seven categories of screened samples (n=73). In the
“Expected outcome” column, green, yellow and red dots indicate sample
categories where the monk seal presence is expected (positive controls),
unknown but possible (Mediterranean trial samples) and impossible
(negative controls), respectively. The number of dots reflects strength
of expected outcome.
