Supplementary Fig. S1
Neighbour-joining tree showing the phylogenetic relationship of DGGE derived from universal bacterial 16S rRNA gene (primers 341F/907R) sequences. Isolates that showed 99 % identity were grouped on the same line. Sequences obtained in the present study are represented with the DGGE band number; the sample ID is provided in parentheses and the eluted Eubacterium biforme bands are indicated in bold. Phylum names given on the right are based on the taxonomic hierarchy used in the second edition of Bergey�s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology. Accession numbers of the type strain sequences retrieved from GenBank are given together with their names. The bootstrap values on the nodes are percentage confidence levels of 1000 replications.
