Supplementary Information %%#

Figure S4 - 16S rRNA phylogenetic tree of Gammaproteobacteria clones recovered during this study, with representative Alphaproteobacteria, Zetaproteobacteria and Deferribacteres included to root the tree. All clones classified as Gammaproteobacteria are included here, versus Fig. 4, where a single representative for each OTU (defined at the 97% similarity level). Clones that were designated as "Other (non-plume)" in Fig. 2 and that were not included in Fig. 4 are designated here with an asterisk (*). Alignments of sequences from this study and their nearest cultured organisms in the Greengenes database as well as some close uncultured clones from the ARB database were constructed using MEGA5. The tree was constructed using Maximum Likelihood algorithm based on the Tamura-Nei model with 500 bootstraps. Bootstrap values >50% are reported. The Marinobacter branch is expanded in Fig. S5. NCBI accession numbers for sequences from cultured representatives and environmental clones are given following the species/clone name. #
