Inhibition of Rhizoctonia solani Growth and Its Extracellular Hydrolytic Enzymes by Different Extracts of Cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) and Black Cumin Seeds (Nigella sativa) [PDF]

Arab Universities Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
The present study evaluated the ability of different extracts of cinnamon and black cumin seeds to inhibit the growth of the phytopathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani and its extracellular cell wall degrading enzymes. Concentrations of 300 and 450 ppm of

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides pelB Is an Important Virulence Factor in Avocado Fruit-Fungus Interaction

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is an important pathogen of tropical and subtropical fruits. The C. gloeosporioides pelB gene was disrupted in the fungus via homologous recombination. Three independent isolates, GD-14, GD-23, and GD-29, did not produce or

Evaluation of the potential of free and immobilized thermophilic bacterial enzymes in the degradation of agro-industrial wastes [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2015
Agro-industrial wastes are potential starting materials for the production of useful value-added compounds, including prebiotic oligosaccharides. In this paper, we evaluated the potential of thermophilic bacterial pectin- and xylan-degrading ...

Chemical and nutritional characteristics, and microbial degradation of rapeseed meal recalcitrant carbohydrates: A review

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Approximately 35% of rapeseed meal (RSM) dry matter (DM) are carbohydrates, half of which are water-soluble carbohydrates. The cell wall of rapeseed meal contains arabinan, galactomannan, homogalacturonan, rhamnogalacturonan I, type II arabinogalactan ...

Enzyme Assay for Identification of Pectin and Pectin Derivatives, Based on Recombinant Pectate Lyase [PDF]

Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 2001
Abstract A simple method was developed for fast identification of pectin, based on a recombinant endopectate lyase cloned from Aspergillus niger. When pectin was demethylated and treated with pectate lyase, β-elimination occurred, resulting in a double bond between C-4 and C-5 in the galacturonic acid residue of the released nonreducing ...

Evolution and functional characterization of pectate lyase PEL12, a member of a highly expanded Clonostachys rosea polysaccharide lyase 1 family

BMC Microbiology, 2018
Background Pectin is one of the major and most complex plant cell wall components that needs to be overcome by microorganisms as part of their strategies for plant invasion or nutrition.

Characterization and Functional Analysis of the Poplar Pectate Lyase-Like Gene PtPL1-18 Reveal Its Role in the Development of Vascular Tissues

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Pectin is a major component of plant cell walls, and the structure of pectin impacts on the properties of wood. Although we know that pectate lyase (PL, EC 4.2.2.2) has a major influence on the structure of pectin, our knowledge of Pectate lyase-like ...

Cloning and characterization of a pectin lyase gene from Colletotrichum lindemuthianum and comparative phylogenetic/structural analyses with genes from phytopathogenic and saprophytic/opportunistic microorganisms

BMC Microbiology, 2011
Background Microorganisms produce cell-wall-degrading enzymes as part of their strategies for plant invasion/nutrition. Among these, pectin lyases (PNLs) catalyze the depolymerization of esterified pectin by a β-elimination mechanism.
