Figure Lengend Snippet: Phylogenetic tree inferred with FastME 2.1.6.1 (Lefort et al. ) using GBDP distances calculated from whole-genome comparisons. Branch lengths are scaled according to the GBDP distance formula d5, and the scale bar indicates substitutions per site. Numbers above branches represent GBDP pseudo-bootstrap support values > 60% from 100 replications, with an average branch support of 58.0%. The tree was rooted at the midpoint (Farris ). The coloured annotations on the right summarize genome-based metadata, including species and subspecies clusters defined by TYGS (dDDH thresholds of 70% and 79%, respectively), genomic G + C content (%), GBDP delta statistics, genome size (bp), predicted protein count, and SSU rRNA length (bp). The “User strain?” column marks the strain analysed in this study ( Geobacillus sp. Geo 8.1), whereas the “Type species?” column indicates the type strains included in the analysis. For quantitative colour-coded annotations, darker shades indicate higher values

Figure Lengend Snippet: Thin-layer chromatographic (TLC) analysis of hydrolytic products obtained from crude enzyme extracts of Geo 8.1 incubated with birchwood xylan at 65 °C. Lane 1: reaction products after 20 min; lane 2: reaction products after 24 h; lanes 3–8: xylose, xylobiose, xylotriose, xylotetraose, xylopentaose, and xylohexose standards, respectively. The results show the progressive conversion of xylan-derived oligosaccharides to xylose, indicating the presence of both endo-xylanase and β-xylosidase activities

Figure Lengend Snippet: Proposed xylan degradation and D-xylose catabolic pathway in Geo 8.1. Enzymes and their corresponding EC numbers are indicated along the pathway, and Geo 8.1 locus tags are provided in parentheses. The scheme illustrates the enzymatic steps from extracellular xylan hydrolysis to intracellular D-xylose catabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway and glycolysis
