Ambient pH-regulated enzime secretion in endophytic and pathogenic isolates of the fungal genus Colletotrichum

Abstract: In fungi a genetic system ensures that enzymes are secreted mainly at ambient pH values corresponding to their optima of activity. Although a great deal of information has been obtained concerning this environmental response, there is a lack of studies involving phytopathogenic, endophytic and entomopathogenic fungi as well as different aspects of fungus-host interactions. This study compares in a plate-clearing assays, the effect of ambient pH in the secretion of amylase, cellulase, lipase, pectinase and prot… Show more

“…The enzyme production was increased gradually from acidic pH 3 to alkaline pH 9 till 7 th day of incubation and after the stated day the production declined. This declination was similar to the research of Maccheroni et al 9 which showed the result of absence of lipase in acidic pH and secreted at neutral and alkaline pH.…”

“…The amylolytic activity was measured spectrophotometrically and on comparing the two strains FC8ABr was found to produce more amylases than the other one by exhibiting 0.79 OD U/ hr/ mL at pH 9 on 11 th day incubation. Interestingly, the strain produced amylase at alkaline pH, and this was controversy to the report of Maccheroniet al 9 who observed the amylase activity was not seen at an alkaline pH and starch was degraded at neutral and acidic pH. But FC2AP strain produced about 0.66 OD U/ hr/ mL (Fig 2) at neutral pH on 11 th day of incubation, there was only a little variation in the production of amylases between two strains and this may be due to their difference in class.…”

“…Investigando os microrganismos envolvidos nas transformações dos compostos de carbono e nitrogênio do solo, Sanomiya e Nahas (2003) verificaram que a freqüência de bactérias amilolíticas foi significativamente afetada pelo pH do solo. Em meio solidificado, a produção de amilase por isolados de Colletotrichum também obedeceu a um padrão dependente do pH ambiental (Maccheroni Jr. et al 2004). Trabalhando com rizóbios, Oliveira et al (2006b) concluíram que a atividade amilolítica de alguns isolados estão sujeitas às variações de pH do meio sólido, com as maiores atividades ocorrendo em pH 6,5.…”
