Optimization of a metatranscriptomic approach to study the lignocellulolytic potential of the higher termite gut microbiome

Optimization of a metatranscriptomic approach to study the lignocellulolytic potential of the higher termite gut microbiome

Abstract Background Thanks to specific adaptations developed over millions of years, the efficiency of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose decomposition of higher termite symbiotic system exceeds that of many other lignocellulose utilizing environments. Especially, the examination of its symbiotic m...
