1 MZC: Collection of Microbiology and Zoology Departments of UCO of cellulolytic microorganisms. 7 Positive control in cellulolytic activity test. 2 Substrates and conditions from which microorganisms associated with Reticulitermes grassei were isolated: from decomposed wood of forest trees colonized by R. grassei (Wood/Field colonization); from food sources after being eaten by R. grassei in laboratory-controlled conditions (Filter paper or Wood/Laboratory colonization), or from a suspension of collected termites (R. grassei) from affected fields (Suspension from collected termites). 3 Corresponding GenBank accession numbers of our isolates. 4 GenBank accession numbers blasted with the isolates obtained in this study. 5 Number of spaces introduced into the alignment to compensate for insertions and deletions in our sequence relative to blasted sequences. 6 Number of nucleotides of our sequences/number of nucleotides of blasted sequences.
