Fig. 1

Model for lignocellulose degradation in the A. vulgare holobiont. Diagrams represent the CAZy families contributed by the host (red) and the microbiome (blue). (I) Lignin would be partially degraded to release cellulose and hemicellulose. (II) Cellulose would be degraded by the action of endoglucanases and β-glucosidases. A high number of β-glucosidases and mechanical fragmentation by A. vulgare could compensate for the lack of exoglucanases. (III) The A. vulgare holobiont could degrade most types of hemicellulose due to the high diversity of Debranching enzymes* (CE1, CE3, CE4, CE5, CE6, CE7, CE12, GH3, GH4, GH43, GH51), Endo-hemicellulases* (GH5, GH8, GH9, GH10, GH11, GH16, GH30, GH43, GH51, GH53, GH74, GH113, GH128, GH134), and Exo-hemicellulases* (GH1, GH2, GH3, GH4, GH5, GH27, GH29, GH30, GH31, GH35, GH36, GH39, GH42, GH43, GH51, GH57, GH116, GH120)
