FIG. 5.

Comparison of the distribution on the major phylogenetic groups found in the three different types of water studied: i.e., Grane reservoir water (samples GR1, GR2, and GT), Ecker reservoir (ER1, ER2, and ET), and drinking water (Li, Lb, DW11, DW12, and DW15). Open bars, Grane reservoir water; solid bars, Ecker reservoir water; gray bars, drinking water. (A) Phylotypes from the DNA-based SSCP fingerprints. (B) Phylotypes from the RNA-based SSCP fingerprints. Results are based on the phylotypes given in Tables 2 and 3, respectively. There are slightly more phylotypes shown in the bar charts because some of the phylotypes occurred in more than one type of water.
