Figure 4

Unpretreated switchgrass utilization by C. thermocellum and C. clariflavum strains. Percentage of residual switchgrass relative to original weight (A) is shown for triplicate experiments with C. thermocellum ATCC 27405, C. clariflavum DSM 19732, C. clariflavum str. 4-2a, and uninoculated controls after 5 days of incubation. Percentage of glucan, xylan, and arabinan utilization (B) is also shown for all three organisms.
