Table 3.
A total of 727 clones from three sites (A, C, and D) grouped into 56 OTUs at 97% similarity. We identified Actinobacteria in 16 of 39 actinobacterial families based on RDP values and phylogenetic analysis. All groupings except the Acidimicrobiales are within the order Actinomycetales. We report total number of clones and their abundance at each site as well as the total number of OTUs and their abundance at each site.
