متن کاملPOLYPHENOL OXIDASE ACTIVITY AND DIFFERENTIATION OF RHIZOMORPH IN ARMILLARIA MELLEA (VAML. EX. FR.) KARST
Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity varied in differentiation from hyphae to rhizomorph and croute in A. mellea. In undifferentiated hyphae there was not any PPO activity, while croute showed the highest activity. Electrophoresis in the presence of SDS allows the detection of intensive enzyme forms of PPO, and can also convert slower migrating enzyme forms to faster ones. Some fluorescent co...
