Values indicate the depths in the mat from which candidate phylum clones were obtained; the number of sequences from each depth is in parentheses. The GenBank accession numbers are those of clones from other studies without prior phylum affiliations that are included in GN candidate phyla. See http://Pacelab.colorado.edu/Publications/publications.html for the Arb dendrogram showing these phyla in the context of previously described phyla.
