This project focuses on understanding how enzymes in the digestive system of Svalbard reindeer can improve the conversion of plant biomass. By studying the microbial community, it aims to identify genetic factors that enhance the breakdown of plant materials, contributing to a sustainable bio-based economy.
Understanding the enzymology of plant biomass conversion is a key issue in the world’s desire to establish a sustainable bio-based economy.
Currently available enzyme technology is insufficiently effective, and several fundamental key questions as to how enzymes and plant cell walls interact remain.
The present project will address these issues by studying a natural biomass-converting ecosystem adapted to the local biomass, namely the microbial community (microbiome) resident in the digestive tr…
