PCR1 (target amplification):
“PCR mixture for the 16S-ITS-23S of the rrn operon (50 μl total volume) contained 5 ng of DNA template (or 2.5 μl of unquantifiable initial DNA), 1X Phusion® High Fidelity Buffer, 0.2 mM μl dNTPs 1 μM each primer and 1 U Phusion® Hot Start II Taq Polymerase. The PCR thermal profile consisted of an initial denaturation of 30 s at 98°C, followed by 25 cycles of 7 s at 98°C, 30 s at 59°C, 150 s at 72°C, and a final step of 10 min at 72°C.”

PCR2(barcoding):
“PCR mixture for the barcoding PCR (100 μl total volume) contained 0.5 nM of the first PCR product (50 ng for the 16S rRNA gene and 142 ng for the 16S-ITS-23S), 1X Phusion® High Fidelity Buffer, 0.2 mM μl dNTPs, and 2 U Phusion® Hot Start II Taq Polymerase. Each PCR tube contained the DNA, the PCR mixture and 2 μl of the specific barcode. The PCR thermal profile consisted of an initial denaturation of 30 s at 98°C, followed by 15 cycles of 7 s at 98°C, 15 s at 62°C, 45 s (for the 16S rRNA gene) or 150 s (for rrn operon) at 72°C, and a final step of 10 min at 72°C.”
