16S rRNA gene contig identification. A 454 16S rRNA gene amplicon library was assembled at an identity of 95%. Assembled contigs were submitted to the Ribosomal Database Project 16S Classifier. It should be noted that the generally accepted confidence threshold is 80%. % values represent a bootstrap confidence estimate calculated by the RDP Classifier. Only the three largest populations are shown (Table S3).
