Application

Application Comment Organism
additional information besides their role in recycling organic matter, saprobiotic enzymes like endopolygalacturonase may also play an important role in the induction of defensive mechanisms in wild plants by enhancing their non-specific resistance against pathogens Mucor ramosissimus

pectin + H2O pectin from citrus or Palicourea marcgravii, more active upon pectic substrates with a low degree of methyl esterification. The enzyme itself and the products of its action on the pectic fraction of Palicourea marcgravii elicite the production of defensive compounds in the leaves of the plant Mucor ramosissimus oligogalacturonides
