Abstract Food crop security and is a challenge in the agricultural sector to produce quality healthy food products for consumption by community. The use of synthetic fungicides induce plant resistance negatively affects abundance diversity biological agents.Cellulose enzymes chitinase are capable lytic that degrade cell walls pathogenic fungi plants. This study aims isolate organic rice rhizosp...

bunch rot disease is one of the most important diseases of grapes caused by the storage rot fungi such as aspergillus tubingensis and penicillium crustosum. in this study, some biocontrol mechanisms of two pichia membranaefaciens strains such as competitive potential, the siderophore and toxin production capacity, the interactions between yeast cells and fungal hyphae and also the ability of ly...

Twelve isolates of Trichoderma (six of T. harzianum, five of T. viride, one of T. virens), which reduced variably the incidence of collar rot disease caused in peanut by Aspergillus niger Van Tieghem, were evaluated for their potential to produce lytic enzymes during in vitro antagonism. T. viride 60 inhibited highest (86.2%) growth of test fungus followed by T. harzianum 2J (80.4%) at 6 days a...

A lytic factor, associated with the cell wall, was fortuitously discovered during the course of the investigations described in the previous paper (1). In the pneumococcal transformation system (2-5) as well as in the Bacillus subtilis transformation system (6), the highly transformable strains possessed active autolytic enzymes. Consequently, studies were undertaken to investigate the relation...
