Dale, are you telling us that the % sensitivity of the PCR changes from
whole grain to flour?

Is this due to the distribution of dna fragments between the various
parts of the grain, with relatively more in the flour than in the whole
seed? I'm having trouble imaging why the sensitivity would be affected
otherwise. Thanks for any insight.
