Abstract:Endophytic fungi synthesize a diverse set of enzymes and biomolecules with wide array of bioactivities. Thirty-five distinct fungal endophytes have been isolated from medicinal plants of Rutaceae and screened for their ability to produce various industrially important enzymes. Primary enzyme screening revealed that 65% of isolates produced L-Asparaginase, 62% of isolates produced cellulase, 60% of isolates produced amylase, 48% of isolates produced both lipase and pectinase, 45% of isolates produced laccase an… 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.
