The structural and functional contributions of β-glucosidase-producing microbial communities to cellulose degradation in composting

Abstract Background Compost habitats sustain a vast ensemble of microbes that engender the degradation of cellulose, which is an important part of global carbon cycle. β-Glucosidase is the rate-limiting enzyme of degradation of cellulose. Thus, analysis of regulation of β-glucosidase gene expression...
