Abstract

Lysozyme (EC 3.2.1.17) and/or chitinase (EC 3.2.1.14) activities were found to be increased up to 2-fold in Rubus hispidus callus cultured in vitro by infection with Micrococcus luteus, Septoria nodorum and Trichoderma viride. The presence of chitin, chitosan and the bacterial peptidoglycan in the growth medium could also increase chitinase activity and, to a lesser extent, lysozyme activity in the tissue cultures.
