Application

Application Comment Organism
agriculture seed-specific overexpression of Aspergillus niger phytase in corn leads to transgenic corn with bioavailable phosphate. Maximal phytase activity of 125 FTU/g kernels can be obtained, 1000fold above that of the wild type, with 1000 g of kernels containing up to 67 times the feed industry requirement. An animal feeding trial demonstrated that the recombinant enzyme has similar nutritional effects on broiler chickens to a commercially available phytase product in terms of reducing inorganic phosphorus addition to feed and phosphate excretion in animal manure Aspergillus niger
