Fig. 4: Relative abundance of CAZy families involved in plant polymer transformation found in the retrieved MAGs from the MELMC.

Comparison was performed using the CAZyme profiles of 30 close-bacterial genomes. Heatmaps were constructed using normalized values (by number of hits per genome). The labels within squares represent the type of polymers where enzymes could act: O oligosaccharides, C cellulose, L lignin, X xylan, P pectin. Asterisks represent CAZy families uniquely found in the MAGs from the MELMC.
