TABLE 4.
Taxonomic affiliation based on 16S rRNA gene sequences of new bacterial strains isolated from the carapace of Cancer pagurus specimens. Given are our source (NA = nonaffected or BS = black spot shell diseased areas), the closest described relative (accession number), the similarity of the respective 16S rRNA gene sequence, and the medium used for isolation
