a According to the environmental samples’ provider.

b Calculated with the results obtained from a SYBRGreen real-time PCR reaction.

c Values obtained by plotting Ct values from the species-specific TaqMan assay into the standard curve-derived equation (Fig 2).

d ND: one of the two replicates did not amplify.
