## Abstract Plantβpathogenic fungi produce an array of extracellular hydrolytic enzymes that enable them to penetrate and infect the host tissue; these enzymes are collectively called cell wallβdegrading enzymes (CWDE). They may contribute to pathogenesis by degrading wax, cuticle and cell walls, t
Three strongly pathogenic isolates of Aspergillus niger were capable of producing pectolytic, cellulolytic and proteolytic enzyme activities in various culture media, extracellularly, indicating the positive correlation between in vitro enzyme production and virulence of the pathogens. Cell wall-de
Two experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of added cell wall-degrading enzymes at ensiling on the fermentation and in situ degradation of grass and legume silages. Primary growths of Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiΒ―orum Lam) and lucerne (Medicago sativa L) were wilted and ensiled in
