Microbial characterization of an active Wiltshire brine. Brine samples were taken from nine random curing containers in three sampling replicates (A–C) in 2014. Bacterial genera are represented as a relative percentage of the sample’s total microbiome. The microbiome profile of sampling replicates shows minor variations. The composite 2014 microbiome profile illustrates the average bacterial consortium in a Wiltshire brine at this time point. The common and dominant genera in all of the brine sampled, consist of Marinilactibacillus, Carnobacterium, Leuconostoc, Marinomonas, Pseudoalteromonas, Vibrio, and “Other.”
