Hello SalikaSafar28,

You might consider showing both the medians and the means so that the judges could judge whether the means were influenced by unusually high or low percentages. You might consider plotting those 2 numbers by year, and, if you are keeping strains separate, even by strain. This would let you (and the judges) see if the data for some years was skewed.

And, I also agree with Brandi that you would want to tabulate the partial sequences separately.

Good luck with your project.
