morphogenesis in trichoderma: suppression of photoinduction by 5-fluorouracil.sporulation in the fungus trichoderma viride is inducible with a short light pulse. 5-fluorouracil applied prior to photoinduction and removed thereafter suppressed sporulation without greatly aflecting growth. this compound also halved the rate of incorporation of uracil-c(14) into rna but did not change the ratio of uridylic to cytidylic acid. the effect of 5-fluorouracil was counteracted by uracil but not by thymidine. this supports the hypothesis that 5-fluorouracil affects rna rather than d ...19665948551
malathion degradation by trichoderma viride and a pseudomonas species.malathion was found to be metabolized quickly by a soil fungus, trichoderma viride, and a bacterium, pseudomonas sp., which were originally found in soils from northern ohio that had been sprayed heavily with insecticides. results of a survey of the breakdown capabilities of 16 variants of t. viride revealed that certain colonies from this species had a very marked ability to breakdown malathion through the action of a carboxylesterase(s). the enzymes can be made soluble by preparing the acetone ...19665950619
u-21,963, a new antibiotic. i. discovery and biological activity.a new antibiotic, u-21,963, is produced by a new strain of trichoderma viride. antibiotic activity can be demonstrated against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and also against a wide variety of fungi. u-21,963 is not cross-resistant with other commonly used antibiotics. u-21,963 afforded no protection against klebsiella pneumoniae, streptococcus pyogenes, or staphylococcus aureus when it was injected subcutaneously into mice.19664959076
diphenamid metabolism in plants.diphenamid, a herbicide, is metabolized to n-methyl 2,2-diphenylacetamide and 2,2-diphenylacetamide by the common soil fungi trichoderma viride and aspergillus candidus within 48 hours. the two metabolites are more toxic than diphenamid to both tomato and barnyard-grass seedlings under sterile conditions. this finding indicates that the phytotoxic moiety is not diphenamid but one of its metabolites-probably the n-methyl derivative.196717738227

effects of polyoxin d on germination, morphological development and biosynthesis of the cell wall of trichoderma viride.when polyoxin d is added to a spore suspension of trichoderma viride at a concentration from 50-100 mug/ml, it inhibits from 40-60% of germination. this percentage increases if dimethylsulfoxide (dmso) is added. mycelium growing in the presence of polyoxin d becomes irregular and loses its rigidity, showing several bulges along the hypha. under the electron microscope the features of the cell wall and cytoplasmic content are apparently normal. nevertheless, after incubation with different lytic ...1976945049
organic amendments and control of foot rot of piper betle caused by phytophthora parasitica var. piperina.experiments have been performed to control foot rot of piper betle by organic amendments and antagonists in soil. soil amended with corn straw gave best control. corn straw supplemented with nitrogen (nh4no3) gave still better control. the effect of different antagonists growing on corn-straw and til (sesamum indicum) oil cake amendments showed that trichoderma viride gave best control. aspergillus terreus failed to control the disease although it showed great antifungal activity under controlle ...1976952442
degradation of [14c]photodieldrin by trichoderma viride as affected by other insecticides.various soil fungi were tested for their capacity to degrade the insecticide [14c]photodieldrin. of nine species investigated, trichoderma viride was the only one which degraded the insecticide to an appreciable extent into water-soluble, non-insecticidal compounds within 4-5 weeks. these products amounted to 32-41% of the radiocarbon applied to the culture media. the degradation was a function of live mycelia, which metabolized the insecticide and excreted water-soluble compounds into the cultu ...1976987840
[biogenesis of cellulolytic enzymes by trichoderma ligorum on media with "inductor"].identical distribution of c2- and cx-cellulase activities of enzyme complexes produced by trichoderma lignorum on a medium with lactose, a soluble "inductor", and on a medium with cellulose was found by means of disc elestrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. the maximum rate of synthesis of cellulases on the medium with lactose was registered during the highest deceleration, and even complete cessation, of the fungal growth. during this phase, only one electrophoretically homogeneous cellulase comp ...1976988467
structural characterization of a glycoprotein cellulase, 1,4-beta-d-glucan cellobiohydrolase c from trichoderma viride.a glycoprotein enzyme, 1,4-beta-d-glucan cellobiohycrolase (ec 3.2.1.91) form c, was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by a procedure which permitted isolation of gram quantities from a commercial trichoderma viride culture filtrate preparation. purified cellobiohydrolase c has an e1%/280 nm = 14.2 and degrades both microcrystalline and phosphoric acid-swollen cellulose to cellobiose. the cellobiohydrolase c contains 26.4, 4.8, 2.4 and 3.4 mol of mannose, glucose, galactose and glucosamine ...19761032996

starch degradation by the mould trichoderma viride. ii. regulation of enzyme synthesis.the synthesis of amylolytic enzymes by the maltose not-utilizing trichoderma viride strain cbs 354.44 requires the presence of starch or dextrins. several readily utilizable carbon sources such as glucose and glutamic acid were shown to exert a strong catabolite repression which completely inhibited enzyme induction by starch or dextrins. enzyme synthesis occurs in the exponential and in the stationary growth phase. in the latter, the ratio between saccharifying and dextrinizing enzyme activity ...19761086639
beta-glucosidase of trichoderma: its biosynthesis and role in saccharification of cellulose.the extracellular beta-glucosidase of trichoderma viride generally is present in low levels when the organism is cultured on cellulose because it is inactivated under the acid conditions which develop in the medium while the other enzymes of the cellulase complex are more stable. with the appropriate ph control, inactivation of beta-glucosidase is prevented and the activity of this enzyme increases during growth. in the saccharification of crystalline cellulose, or of cellulose at low concentrat ...19765951
suppression of photo-induced sporulation in trichoderma viride by inhibitors.the mycelium of trichoderma viride grown in the dark under submerged conditions and transferred to membrane filters sporulated only after photoinduction. the optimum photoinduction of sporulation was reached when applying daylight for 3 min and near ultraviolet radiation (355 nm) for 10 to 30 sec. after the photoinduction probounced synthesis of dna, rna and protein was observed. the photoinduced sporulation was partially or fully inhibited in the presence of phenethyl alcohol, actinomycin d, 5- ...197661923
factors influencing the production of cellulases by sporotrichum thermophile.cellulase production and growth of a strain of sporotrichum thermophile were studied by using a mineral salts medium supplemented with yeast extract and insoluble cellulose. the effects of cultural conditions, such as ph, nitrogen source, substrate concentration, and temperature, were examined. maximum production of c1 and cx cellulases occurred at 45 c in 2 to 4 days, in the presence of 1% solka/floc as substrate, when nano3 or urea used as sources of nitrogen. under these conditions, celluloly ...19767194
partial proteolysis of some cellulase components from trichoderma viride and the substrate specificity of the modified products.an endo-cellulase component ec 3.2.1.4 or random type, f ii, was obtained from "cellulase onozuka," a commercial product from trichoderma viride, and was subjected to partial proteolysiats with a protease preparation of the same fungal origin. the resulting modified cellulase was fractioned by two steps of column chromatography, and the resulting patterns, together with the substrate specificity expressed in terms of the randomness of cmc hydrolysis and the immunological properties against anti- ...19768436
antifungal properties of alpha,omega-alkanedicarboxylic acids and their dimethyl esters.thirteen alpha, omega-alkanedicarboxylic acids (c2-c12, c14, and c16) and their dimethyl esters were tested against aspergillus niger, trichoderma viride, and myrothecium verrucaria in sabourauc dextrose agar at ph 4.0 and 5.6. toxicity to canadida albicans, trichophyton mentagrophytes, and mucor mucedo was determined in the same medium at ph 5.6 and 7.0 in the absence and presence of 10% beef serum. the dicarboxylic acids possessed very poor to no antifungal activity against all six fungi. the ...19769194
starch degradation by the mould trichoderma viride. i. the mechanism of starch degradation.the mechanism of starch degradation by the fungus trichoderma viride was studied in strain cbs 354.44, which utilizes glucose, starch and dextrins but is unable to assimilate maltose. it was shown that the amylolytic enzyme system is completely extracellular, equally well induced by starch, amylose or amylopectin and that it consists mainly of enzymes of the glucoamylase type which yield glucose as the main product of starch hydrolysis. small amounts of alpha-amylase are produced also. the enzym ...197610832
enzymatic studies on a cellulase system of trichoderma viride. iv. purification and properties of a less-random type cellulase.a cellulase ec 3.2.1.4 component was purified from a crude cellulase preparation of trichoderma viride (meicelase) by consecutive column chromatography procedures, and was designated as cellulase iii. the enzyme was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel disc electrophoresis. the molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 45,000 by gel filtration. the optimum ph and temperature of the enzyme were ph 4.5-5.0 and 50 degrees, respectively. the enzyme was stable over the range of ph 4.5-7.5 ...197612153
semiquantitative plate assay for determination of cellulase production by trichoderma viride.a plate clearing assay was devised to screen for high-producing cellulase mutants of trichoderma viride. the method employs (i) the use of either rose bengal or oxgall to limit colony size and (ii) phosfon d (tributyl-2, 4-dichloroben-zylphosphonium chloride) to enhance cellulase detection, in combination with acid-swollen cellulose on agar plates. the method was used to isolate constitutive cellulase mutants of t. viride and should prove useful for isolating high-producing mutants from a range ...197716345184
