Putatively representative fibrolytic gene clusters and a hypothetical model recovered from gut microbiome of G. brachycerastes. a Gene organization of the representative fibrolytic gene clusters targeting plant polysaccharides. Shading box indicates shared operon. b A hypothetical model of contig00026 depicts complete cellulose and hemicellulose cleavage pathways (see the text for more details).
