Particularly, identification and isolation of CAZymes Reviewed by: Marco Antonio Seiki Kadowaki, is of biotechnological relevance and has the potential to improve the cache of currently Université libre de Bruxelles, Belgium available commercial enzyme cocktails toward enhanced plant biomass utilization. The Renato Graciano De Paula, order Tremellales comprises phylogenetically diverse fungi living as human pathogens, Federal University of Espírito Santo, Brazil mycoparasites, saprophytes or associated with insects. Here, we have employed Gabriel Paes, comparative genomics approaches to highlight the phylogenomic relationships among Fractionnation of AgroResources and Environment (INRA), France thirty-five Tremellales and to identify putative enzymes of biotechnological interest *Correspondence: encoded on their genomes. Evaluation of the predicted proteomes of the thirty-five Habibu Aliyu Tremellales revealed 6,918 putative carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZYmes) and 7,066
