The ability of these arthropods to feed on wood, foliage, and detritus is likely to involve catalysis by different types of cellulases/hemicellulases that are secreted by the gut microbiota, including Pantoea agglomerans WAB1927, to digest structural and recalcitrant lignocellulosic residues in their foods.
