aBacteria were isolated from Kartchner Caverns, AZ, USA and identified using 16S rDNA sequencing25.

bValues reported are the average correlation coefficients of 3 technical replicates ± one standard deviation.

cValues reported are the average values of 3 technical replicates ± one standard deviation.
