The amplicons mixed are indicated above the lanes according to the strain used for amplification: Anabaena sp. 37 (A37), Oscillatoria sp. PCC 6506 (6506), Oscillatoria sp. PCC 9107 (9107), and Aphanizomenon sp. 3 (Aph). Digestion reactions without the enzyme are indicated with ud, and the size marker lanes with SM.
