a, Relative abundance of dominant populations (≥1%) at the end of the cultivation. Detailed genome information and average coverage are provided in Supplementary Tables 1 and 2. Single DNA samples were isolated from the 15 l culture on each indicated day for metagenomic sequencing. b, CMCase (red) and xylanase (green) activity measurements obtained by daily sampling of the 15 l cultivation. Enzymatic assays are reported as the mean of technical replicates (n = 3) and error bars represent standard error of the mean. c, Daily relative abundances (calculated using the average number of reads of binned scaffolds from time-series metagenomic data for the 15 l cultivation) of the Paenibacillaceae 1 population (red) during a 14-day cultivation of the consortium grown with microcrystalline cellulose.
