A halotolerant hyaluronidase from newly isolated Brevibacterium halotolerans DC1: Purification and characterization.

An enzyme hyaluronidase (hyase) producing halotolerant bacterium was isolated from dental caries and identified as Brevibacterium halotolerans DC1. Higher growth and hyase production were observed in nutrient broth fortified with hyaluronic acid at pH 7.0, temperature 37 °C, 120 rpm upon 48 h of incubation.

Incidence of leaf spot disease on cotton caused by and role of its hydrolytic enzymes in pathogenesis.

The finding described in this study is the first report of leaf spot disease of cotton caused by surveyed in the state of Maharashtra (India). The isolated phytopathogenic fungal strain was identified using morphological characteristics and molecular identification of ITS gene sequence (MF784436) and D1D2 region of LSU gene (KY978073). The ability of fungal strain to secrete hydrolytic enzymes viz.
