Abbreviations: H, ‘heavy' fraction; L, ‘light' fractions; t0, sampling point at the start of incubation; t24 sampling point after 24 h of incubation.
Sequences were assigned to bacterial families by using the RDP Classifier, DOTUR analysis and BLASTn search. The number of sequences retrieved from cDNA of ‘heavy' and ‘light' fractions ranged from 81 to 92 (Supplementary Table S1). The percentage of relative abundances for phyla and orders are shown in parentheses.
Considered as a novel family based on gene sequence similarities <87.5%.
