Abstract

The phytase enzyme was collected from plants (cereal, legumes and oilseeds) and fungal sources and compared their efficiency to release inorganic P from organic P compounds. In general, fungi released more phytase after 21 days of growth and their extracellular activity was more than their intra-cellular counterpart. Plants are releasing 4 to 43% more phytase under P deficient condition as compared to the sufficient P condition. Oilseed crops releases higher phytase than legumes and cereal crops. But phytase released from legumes are discovered to be more efficient to hydrolyze organic phosphorus. Phytase release by Chaetomium globosum was exposed to be most efficient on as compared to the phytase produced by other tested fungi. Phytase originated from fungal sources are described to be more efficient than similar amount of phytase originated from plant sources.
