Raw starch-degrading enzyme from newly isolated strains of endophytic fungi

Four newly isolated strains of endophytic fungi namely Gibberella pulicaris, Acremonium sp., "Synnematous" sp. and Nodilusporium sp. were compared for their degradative activity on raw and gelatinized starches, substrate specificity and optimum pH. Results showed that the raw starch-degrad...
