Ant and cultivar specific enzyme activity. Fungus garden ITS haplotype enzyme activities (diameter of the halo on AZCL plates after positive enzyme reactions) of 12 carbohydrate-active enzymes in four species of Trachymyrmex higher-attine ants. Sample size for each fungal ITS haplotype is given in brackets. Amylase: α-Amylase, Protease CA: endo-Protease (Casein substrate), Protease CO: endo-Protease (Collagen substrate), Arabinase: endo-1,5-α-Arabinase, Rhamno: Rhamnogalacturonanase, Mannanase: endo-β-1,4-Mannanase, Galactanase: endo-β-1,4-Galactanase, Cellulase C: Cellulase (cellulose substrate), Cellulase G: Cellulase (β-glucan substrate), Xylogluc: endo-β-1,4-Xyloglucanase, Xylanase X: endo-β-1,4-Xylanse (xylan substrate), Xylanase AX: endo-β-1,4-Xylanase (arabinoxylan substrate).
