Abstracts |
The activities of enzymes such as cellulase, pectinase, proteinase, chitinase and acid phosphatase produced in vitro by T terrestris and H. Crustuliniforme, as well as the activity of beta-glucosidase in roots of inoculated Scots pine seedlings, were studied. In pare Cultures an isolate of T terrestris produced nine of ten enzymes, whereas an isolate of H. Crustuliniforme produced only five enzymes. The activity Of enzymes was higher in T terrestris cultures than in H. Crustuliniforme, the only exception being neutral proteinase. It was observed that in roots of seedlings inoculated with T terrestris levels Of beta-glucosidase was about 107 per cent higher activity than in roots of non-inoculated seedlings. The enzyme level in roots inoculated with H. Crustuliniforme was 44 per cent lower than in those inoculated with T terrestris. |
