What does the following results mean? We pooled the conditions from 2:5 and 1:6 because no difference was detected and took a measurement (count of the number of bacteria) which is a discrete variable. We were able to assume the normal distribution and used the Poisson distribution, resulting in a p-value greater than 0.05.
