Figure 1.
Numbers of organisms identified by genus- and species-specific PCRs, 16S rRNA PCR, and sequencing (including percent identity match), n = 53.
a Identification by genus- and species-specific PCRs.
b 16S rRNA PCR-positive, but no genus or species identification could be made.
c Percent identity match by sequencing of 16S rRNA PCR product. n/a = not applicable, samples were identified by genus- or species-specific PCRs, not 16S rRNA and were not subjected to BLAST analysis.
