Enzymatic Activity of Fungi Isolated From the Bases of Stems and Roots of Faba Bean Plants Infected with Root Rot Disease

الملخص

Six fungi isolated from faba bean plant infected with stem and root rot were selected to measure their enzymatic activity. All fungi produced cellulase and protease, and showed difference in their ability to produce pectinase. R.solani and M.phaseolina secreted all enzymes, while F.solani and F.oxysporum did not produce pectinase. There was no relationship between diameters of colony and the enzymatic activity. F.solani gave the highest activity for cellulase, (75mm), R.solani showed the lowest activity. A.flaves gave the highest activity for pectinase (42 mm), F.solani and F.oxysporum did not show activity. A.niger and R.solani gave the highest protease activity (80 mm), F.solani and M.phaseolina gave the lowest activity.
