Ninety two fungal species recovered on cellulose -CZAPEK'S agar plates from Egyptian soils were assayed for their cellulolytic activities either at 28 "C (mesophilic) or at 45 "C (thermophilic or thermotolerant). The percentage increase of protein-nitrogen over those of control was taken as a measur

Representative isolates of Aspergillus niger, Botryodiplodia theobromae, Corticium rolfsii, Geotrichum candidum, Fusarium oxysporum and F solani recovered from rotten cocoyams were studied for the production of pectinolytic and cellulolytic enzymes. All the isolates elaborated high levels of hydrola
## Abstract The cellulolytic activity of several aerobic soil actinomycetes against insoluble cellulose and soluble cellulose derivatives (CMCβcarboxymethylcellulose) was studied. From the soil, 8 actinomycete strains were isolated after enrichment growth and purification on the same synthetic med
