Diagram of RFLP patterns (after EcoRI digestion) of cloned 16S rRNA genes, resolved by agarose gel electrophoresis. All five different restriction patterns obtained, defined as OTUs, are shown along with their proportional representation in the 111 clones screened. Molecular weight standards (lane M) were included for comparison. Fragment sizes (in kilobase pairs) are indicated on the left.
