A comparative study of polygalacturonase activity of 85 saprophytic, plant pathogenic and endophytic strains of Fusarium poae, Alternaria alternata, Penicillium funiculosum and Mycelia sterilia was conducted. It was established that in general polygalacturonase activity of Mycelia sterilia and P. funiculosum strains was significantly higher than that of A. alternata and F. poae strains. The majority of the studied strains showed a middle level of polygalacturonase activity. High activity was characteristic of only endophytic F. poae, P. funiculosum and Mycelia sterilia strains. The dependence of polygalacturonase activity of the studied strains on their rate of linear growth, cultivation time, as well as species and organs of host plants, which they were isolated from, was not established. The polygalacturonase presence in the dominant and common species of endophytic fungi of the bog plants of Ukrainian Polesie suggests that endophytic microscopic fungi play an important role in the hydrolysis of pectic substances of plant tissues, as well as in migration of mineral elements in wetland ecosystems.

Free pectinase is commonly employed as a biocatalyst in wine clarification; however, its removal, recovery, and reuse are not feasible. To address these limitations, this study focuses on the immobilization of a commercial pectinolytic preparation (Pec) onto highly porous polymer microparticles (MPs). Seven microparticulate polyamide (PA) supports, namely PA4, PA6, PA12 (with and without magnetic properties), and the copolymeric PA612 MP, were synthesized through activated anionic ring-opening polymerization of various lactams.

Whether the calyx tube of the Korla fragrant pear falls off seriously affects the fruit quality. 'Xinnonglinxiang' is a mutant variety of the Korla fragrant pear, which has a high calyx removal rate under natural conditions, and calyx tube fall seriously affects the fruit quality. The mechanism behind the high calyx removal rate of 'Xinnonglinxiang' remains unclear; thus, Korla fragrant pear (PT) and 'Xinnonglinxiang' (YB) with different degrees of calyx abscission were used as examples and the abscission areas of calyx tubes were collected in the early (21 April), middle (23 April), and late (25 April) shedding stages to explore the regulatory mechanism behind the abscission.

Grape pomace, the solid residue from winemaking, is a rich source of polyphenolic compounds with significant antioxidant properties. However, the efficient extraction of these valuable compounds remains a challenge. This study focuses on optimizing the conditions for the enzyme-assisted extraction of polyphenolic compounds from red grape pomace using cellulase, hemicellulase, and pectinase.

Pathogen-induced fruit decay is a significant threat to the kiwifruit industry, leading to considerable economic losses annually. The cell-wall-degrading enzymes (CWDEs) secreted by these pathogens are crucial for penetrating the cell wall and accessing nutrients. Among them, species are recognized as major causal agents of soft rot in kiwifruit, yet their pathogenic mechanisms are not well understood.
