Clones were assigned to phylotypes by comparing their 16S rRNA gene sequences to those of known organisms. The species name was used if the sequence similarity to a type species was >97%; the genus only was used if the sequence similarity was <97%, but >90%. The clones were described as novel if the sequence similarity of clones to known organisms was < 90%.
‘B’ ‘W’ and ‘J’ represent Black, Caucasian and Japanese women.
Number of clones analyzed per woman.
‘Novel’ includes various phylotypes within the phylum Firmicutes, most of them belong to novel phylotype of Clostridiales.
Relative abundance of population in clone library.
