The gut microbiota serves as a critical “organ” in the life cycle of animals, particularly in the
intricate interplay between herbivorous pests and plants. This review summarizes the pivotal …

To explore the unmapped biotechnologically important microbial platforms for human
welfare, the insect gut system is such a promising arena. Insects, the inhabitant of all …

Utilization of unexplored lignocellulolytic microbial resources is in demand due to its ability
to degrade the waste-plant biomasses like water-hyacinth or noxious weeds for alternative …

Amorphous cellulose can be deconstructed by endoglucanase of bifunctional CelA, which
created nicks in the crystalline regions for exoglucanase to engage. To improve the …

In the current study, an extracellular cellulase belonging to symbiotic Bacillus subtilis Bc1 of
the leopard moth is purified and characterized. The molecular mass of enzyme was 47.8 …

Biodegradation of cellulose-rich substrates is an indispensable process for soil carbon
