PhyloChip™ G3 HybScore profiles of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) identified by Prediction Analysis for Microarray (PAM). Selected OTUs from leaf samples of Huanglongbing (HLB)-affected citrus treated with different antibiotic combinations at different sampling time points. PAM identified nine Enterobacteriaceae OTUs (OTUs 5711, 5749, 5938, 4390, 4198, 4677, 5235, 4146 and 4739) with increased abundance levels in the April 2011 samples when the ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (Las) bacterial titers were the lowest compared to samples collected in October of 2010 and 2011, and one Sphingomonadaceae OTU, 61276, with an increased abundance level in October 2010.
