Additional file 7: Figure S4. of More than 2500Â years of oil exposure shape sediment microbiomes with the potential for syntrophic degradation of hydrocarbons linked to methanogenesis
Distribution and abundance of prokaryotic taxa at different depths of the NE and HE sites. The ten most abundant phyla are depicted as distinct colors. Individual data points represent different orders; the size indicates the order’s abundance while the position on the plot shows the proportion in the three depths. (PDF 42 kb

Predicted functional consequences of SNP polymorphisms on the translational level.
<p><sup>1</sup>silent mutation</p><p>The SNP numbers (#), positions in the reference and the respective variant alleles for the SNP (Mut.) and the reference (Ref.) are shown as well as the potential amino acid (AA.) changes in the affected gene products and the gene designations.</p
SNPs in Pollino isolates detected by whole genome sequencing.
<p>SNPs are numbered according to their position in the reference genome<sup>1</sup> (<i>B</i>. <i>anthracis</i> Ames Ancestor; GenBank accession: AE017334). The bases at the respective positions are shown for Pollino isolates and the reference<sup>2</sup>. SNPs are highlighted in italics.</p
Temperature-dissociation (melt) curve derivatives of HRM-SNP.
<p>The relative fluorescence signal is plotted against the melting temperature (°C) for each SNP. Curves showing ancestral alleles (same base as predominant Pollino allele) are displayed in green. Curves indicating derived alleles (variant allele at the SNP-position) are displayed in red. The respective bases at the SNP position (“G” or “A”) are indicated for each allele group. Inconsistent curves (“?”) are displayed in blue. Negative controls (“NC”) are displayed in light-blue.</p
Hypothesis on an active life cycle of <i>B</i>. <i>anthracis</i> in soil environments.
<p>Soil surrounding the carcass at the lower part of the figure harbors a very high spore burden. The left part of the panel predicts massive soil proliferation of <i>B</i>. <i>anthracis</i> (hypothesis). In this case of an active near-surface life cycle, local accumulation of spores is suggested to be due to repeated rounds of germination, replication and sporulation in the near-surface soil environment. During genome amplification random mutations occur resulting in derived genotypes compared to the genotypes of the initial spore population within the carcass. The right part of the panel depicts events if there was no soil-borne life cycle of the pathogen (competing hypothesis). Inert spores are supposed to accumulate in rainwater depressions. Genotypes differing from the original animal-infecting population cannot be observed in near-surface isolates.</p

Location and details of sampling sites in southern Italy.
<p>Panel A indicates the locations of burial sites in Southern Italy (left) and positions of burial sites A, B and C at Pollino National Park (right). Panel B shows burial site C after sampling at positions 1, 2 and 3 (holes, approx. 50 cm apart).</p
Modified (synthesis) model for <i>B</i>. <i>anthracis</i> genotype dynamics in soil of Pollino burial sites.
<p>Soil surrounding the carcass at the lower part of the figure harbors a very high endospore burden. Genetically diverse genotypes, which can be found near-carcass and near-surface, are the result of either multiple genotype infection or mutations during the course of host infection. Endospores reach the surface and accumulate via physical diffusion. Sporadic germination in soil or possibly in transient vectors, replication and sporulation under favorable conditions can lead to genetically diverse genotypes that can be found in near-surface soil.</p
