Enzymatic Mechanism by Which Dolphin Gut Microbes Degrade Plant Polysaccharides Unveiled
Symbiotic microbial groups within the digestive tract of herbivores are the main source of depolymerized lignocellulases. The dolphin is the largest extant rodent, usually living in the Pantanal wetland and Amazon basin, and is also known as the "king of grass" due to its diet based on grasses and aquatic plants. They can efficiently depolymerize and utilize lignocellulosic biomass through ...
