Sixteen unique fungal taxa were identified from 31 isolates recovered from interior samples in the Okarian rover.
a
Taxonomy was based on BLAST analysis with full contigs.
b
Isolate names represent samples from sites A, B, or C; sample location at each site (1–6; see Fig. 3); F=fungi; temperature for lab incubation (4°C, 25°C, or 37°C); and strain number in sequence from 1. When multiple strains were identified for a specific taxon, the highest affinity with the closest match accession number was given in the table.
c
CA, California; USA, United States of America.
