Additional file 2 of What lies on macroalgal surface: diversity of polysaccharide degraders in culturable epiphytic bacteria

Additional file 2: Table S1. Taxonomical identification of the isolates. The 16S rRNA gene for at least one representative of each ITS group was sequenced and taxonomic identification was attributed using Blastn against the NCBI public database. Table S2. Activity levels of all the isolates expressed as the ratio between the degradation halo diameter and the strain growth diameter. This table also contains information about the host species, the enrichment procedure, clustering in ITS groups and taxonomical identification of each isolate. Table S3. Activity levels of the strains showing the highest performance in at least one of the tested activities. Activity level is reported as the ratio between the degradation halo diameter and the strain growth diameter. Highest activity levels are highlighted in grey. Table S4. Summary of the functional potential of the collection on the basis of the isolate phylogeny. We reported the number of isolates (“N. Isol.”) belonging to each genus and the percentage of isolates active for each tested activity. In violet are highlighted the taxonomical groups that include more than 15 isolates. Table S5. PERMANOVA and Monte Carlo test performed on the whole isolate collection activity level. A) Main and B) pairwise comparisons. Pseudo F = pseudo-F ratio. P = permutation P-value. Unique perms = unique values of the test statistic. Pmc = P Monte Carlo value. Asterisk (*) indicates significant differences between samples (P < 0.05). Table S6. PERMANOVA and Monte Carlo test performed on A. taxiformis sub-collection activity level. A) Main test and B) pairwise comparisons. Pseudo F = pseudo-F ratio. P = permutation P-value. 3 Unique perms = unique values of the test statistic. Pmc = P Monte Carlo value. Asterisk (*) indicates significant differences between samples (P < 0.05). Table S7. PERMANOVA and Monte Carlo test performed on H. scoparia sub-collection activity level. A) Main test and B-C) pairwise comparisons according to B) classes and C) orders. Pseudo F = pseudo-F ratio. P = permutation P-value. Unique perms = unique values of the test statistic. Pmc = P Monte Carlo value. Asterisk (*) indicates significant differences between samples (P < 0.05). Table S8. PERMANOVA and Monte Carlo test performed on S. coronopifolius sub-collection activity level. A) Main test and B-C) pairwise comparisons according to B) phyla and C) orders. Pseudo F = pseudo-F ratio. P = permutation P-value. Unique perms = unique values of the test statistic. Pmc = P Monte Carlo value. Asterisk (*) indicates significant differences between samples (P < 0.05).
