6 Species diversity among basins/samples n° of strains

7 Identification of ITS groups Most common isolates

8 Phylogenetic groups Bacillaceae in sediments  proteobacteria in water/brine interface Bacillaceae and  proteobacteria in all the basins

9 New species New species?

Strains belonging to the same ITS group, are not grouped according to the basin of origin, or according to the same sample type. In some cases strains of the same origin show relatively high similarity

11 Cultivable/uncultivable microflora DGGE fingerprint DWB 2D6D9D 10D11D17D20D21D22D30D31D Isolated strains do not seem to represent the total eubacterial community inhabiting the water/brine interface seawater
