From: Low-abundance populations distinguish microbiome performance in plant cell wall deconstruction
Top panel shows the average patterns of expression for each of the categories, A pectin, B hemicellulose, and C cellulose. The assignments are based on enzymatic activities identified for carbohydrate-active enzymes that are involved in lignocellulose deconstruction (www.cazy.org). The bottom panels depict the different groups of lignocellulose degrading bacterial populations and corresponding gene expression patterns, D pectin, E hemicellulose, and F cellulose. Stars indicate the time points at which gene expression was significantly higher than in the opposite treatment (p < 0.01, log2fold > 1). GH43 was classified as pectin-degrading enzymes, though this family also cleaves arabinoxylan bonds in hemicellulose [54]
