Table 7. Taxonomic distribution of cDNA contigs with homology to 16S ribosomal sequence, by bacterial order.
Class | Order | Number of 16S contigs | Log2 difference in read counts (CCD+/CCD−) |
Actinobacteria | Bifidobacteriales | 3 | −0.82 |
Alphaproteobacteria | Rhizobiales | 7 | −1.47 |
Alphaproteobacteria | Rhodospirillales | 6 | −0.90 |
Bacilli (Firmicutes) | Clostridiales | 5 | +0.19 |
Bacilli (Firmicutes) | Lactobacillales | 24 | +0.29 |
Betaproteobacteria | Burkholderiales | 1 | N/A (3 reads in CCD−, 2 reads in CCD+) |
Betaproteobacteria | Neisseriales | 3 | +0.32 |
Gammaproteobacteria | Enterobacteriales | 13 | +0.42 |
Gammaproteobacteria | Pseudomonadales | 5 | N/A (64 reads in CCD−, 1 read in CCD+) |
Taxonomy was estimated by the RDP Classifier tool for all 303 contigs with bacterial best BLAST matches. Only the 67 contigs with a minimum 80% bootstrap support at the order level are included here. N/A = not applicable, due to a low number of mapped reads.
