Disclosed are compositions and methods that include or utilize plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) for improving growth and health in plants and animals. The compositions and methods include or utilize a plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that expresses a protein associated with pectin metabolism, and a saccharide comprising pectin or a pectin-related saccharide.

Use of pectin or pectin-related saccharides to enhance efficacy of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) strains for promoting growth and health in plants and animals

The present invention relates to a nucleic acid molecule which encodes a polypeptide having cellulase activity and which is thermostable, wherein said nucleic acid molecule comprises or has a nucleotide sequence selected from: The invention further relates to polypeptides encoded by such a nucleic acid molecule, to constructs, vectors and cells comprising the nucleic acid molecule and to a use and method of using a polypeptide of the invention for degrading cellulose.
