isolation and enzymic characterization of white-rot fungi isolated in south africa

摘要

Over 600 Basidiomycete fungi were isolated from indigenous forests as well as commercial Eucalytus sp. and pinus spp.plantations in SOuth Africa. Some of the cultures were identified and biochemical tests were done to screen the cultures for characteristics that are favorable for biopulping. Most of the white-rot fungi previously associated with biopulping wee isolated in South Africa, including strains with uniquely regulated lignolytic systems.
