Abstract
The ability of Fusarium tricinctum to produce polygalacturonase, pectin methylesterase, pectin trans-eliminase and carboxymethylcellulase in vitro was investigated. The optimum temperature and pH for polygalacturonase activity was 35-40 C and 4.0, respectively. The absorption maximum for pectin trans-eliminase reaction products was approximately 550 nm. The activity of all the pectic enzymes investigated increased with culture age. The degradation of carboxymethylcellulose was also demonstrated.
