Research direction

Locate the backend implementation of Compress gDNA plates and the pull-down menu entry, then compare how the shotgun and miniPCR workflows reference this functionality. Verify that miniPCR uses the existing behavior unchanged and that the menu lists Compress gDNA plates under General Workflow.

Description

Compress gDNA plates is currently only used for the shotgun workflow. The new miniPCR workflow also uses the same functionality, unchanged. We should verify that the backend code reflects this, and modify the pull-down menu to show Compress gDNA plates under General Workflow.
