[isolation and characterization of two strains of streptomyces able to metabolize natural polysaccharides including mannan (author's transl)]. | two strains of aerobic and mesophilic microorganisms were isolated from palm-tree plantation sand. they grew on insoluble polysaccharides: mannan, cellulose, chitin as only source of carbon. this lytic activity was used for the purification of the two strains. the morphology of the organisms and the presence of ll-diaminopimetic acid in their cell-wall are characteristic of the genus streptomyces. investigations lead to: 1) the characterization of their specific polysaccharidase activity toward ... | 1976 | 1020873 |
details of the fungistatic effect of phialophora cinerescens. | we have previously isolated two chlorinated antibiotics from phialophora asteris and p. asteris f. sp. helianthi, vascular pathogens on plants. p. cinerescens, pathogen on carnation, also presents a fungitoxic activity but the nature of the antibiotic compound is still unknown. we point out that this activity can be lost by sectorial variations on the growing margin and that the antibiotic product shows a striking photolability. | 1976 | 139982 |
