Several enzymatic activities were investigated in six isolates of the fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana, originating from different areas of Brazil. Among the glycosidases studied, beta-glucosidase, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, beta-xylosidase, cellobiohydrolase, and chitobiohydrolase were the major activities. In some isolates, beta-glucuronidase, beta-galactosidase, and alpha-mannosidase activities were also present. Polysaccharide-hydrolyzing enzymes, such as pectin lyase and carboxymethyl cellulase were detected in significant amounts, and their activities were variable among the different isolates. Other enzymes, namely phosphatases, proteinases and phenol oxidase, were also examined, showing variable amounts depending on the isolate. The pH dependence of all enzymes tested was investigated. Endoproteinase, carboxymethyl cellulase, and phenoloxidase had maximum activity in the pH range of 6-8, whilst all other enzymes showed maximum activity at pH 4-6.

The invertase inhibitory protein isolated from Cyphomandra betacea Sendt and Solanum tuberosum inhibited the invertase activity from different species, genera and even plant family. Furthermore, proteinaceous inhibitors are not invertase specific; fungal, bacterial and higher plant enzymes including polygalacturonase, pectinase, pectin lyase, alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase and beta-glucosidase are also shown to be inhibited. Both inhibitors exhibited an in vitro antibacterial action against phytopathogenics strains of Xanthomonas campestris pvar vesicatoria CECT 792, Pseudomonas solanacearum CECT 125, Pseudomonas corrugata CECT 124, Pseudomonas syringae and Erwinia carotovora var carotovora.

Thanatephorus cucumeris is a ubiquitous fungus responsible for many types of plant diseases worldwide. All isolates from infected Hevea brasiliensis trees secreted pectolytic enzymes; polygalacturonase (PG), pectin lyase (PL) and cellulolytic enzymes; beta-glucosidase and cellobiase in culture. The extracts of the rubber tree leaf tissues, inoculated with T. cucumeris did not show any PG activity. However, PL activity was detected in tissue with the establishment of the infection. The levels of beta-glucosidase, an inherent enzyme in Hevea spp. increased rapidly following infection. However, cellobiase was detected only with the initiation of infection. Molecular weights of PG in all isolates were similar and in the range of 53,000 to 58,000. PL also followed the same pattern showing a molecular weight around 39,000.
