Fig. 4: Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) in section Flavi.

a The total number of CAZymes in each species distributed on six categories of enzyme activity: auxiliary activities, carbohydrate-binding molecules, carbohydrate esterases, glycoside hydrolases, glycosyltransferases, and polysaccharide lyases. b Boxplot representing the diversity of CAZyme family content and abundance among clade A. flavus (light blue), A. tamarii (yellow), A. nomius (dark blue), A. alliaceus (light turquoise), the rest of the Flavi section (orange), other Aspergilli (dark turquoise), and non-Aspergillus species (gray). For each CAZyme class the total number of CAZymes (top row) and the number of unique CAZyme families (bottom row) are displayed. In the boxplot the midline represents the median, the upper and lower limit of the box represents the third and first quartile, and the whiskers extend up to 1.5 times the interquartile.
