[Study of availability of some hydrolytic and redox enzymes in strains of Fusarium oxysporum (Schlecht.) Snyd. and Hans. isolated from different habitats].

The work authors have used 52 strains of F. oxysporum for the collection of cultures of the Department of Physiology and Taxonomy of Micromycetes of IMV of the NAS of Ukraine. The strains were isolated from three habitats--grain cultures, cultivated and noncultivated soils of different regions of Ukraine. Activity of some hydrolytic (cellulose, endo-1,4-beta-xylanase, beta-glucosidase and amylase) and redox (monophenol-monooxygenase and peroxidase) enzymes of F. oxysporum strains. It has been shown that strains isolated from plant substrates produced more actively hydrolytic enzymes--cellulose, endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and beta-glucosidase. As to the degree of these enzymes activity the studied strains were distributed in the following order: strains from plants (P) > strains from cultivated soil (CS) > strains from noncultivated soils (NS). The soil strains NS > CS > P proved to be more active as to activity manifestation of the redox enzymes (monophenol-monooxygenase and peroxidase).
