Abstract:<p>Alive plants and soil microorganisms are the influential sources of extracellular enzymes facilitating decomposition of polymeric organic compounds. Enzyme activities are especially intensive and spatially heterogeneous in the rhizosphere, where microorganisms are stimulated by rhizodeposition. Two-dimensional activity distribution of hydrolytic enzymes participating in transformation of soil organics in the distance gradients from the root can be visualized under UV light by zymography - by p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
