Phylogenetic relationship between the partial 16S rRNA gene sequences from CL consortium isolates and their closest GenBank sequences with the 16S rRNA gene from previously reported known Mn(II)-oxidizing bacterial strains (labeled with ). The GenBank accession numbers of these sequences are shown in brackets. Bootstrap values ≥ 50% with 1,000 replicates are indicated at the branch points.
