Species identified in the subgingival plaque clone library with sequence identities of ≥97% with those available in the Human Oral Microbiome Database, with the exception of E. tonsillarum oral taxon 484 and E. coli oral taxon 574, which were not detected in the clone library. Taxa overlapping with those identified in saliva are in boldface type.
A total of 10 mice were injected with the pooled subgingival plaque sample.
