Abstract

The activities of different celluloytic and pectinolytic enzymes were determined at three different growth stages of blue oyster in terms of loss in viscosity.  The cellulase (Cx) and polygalacturonase transeliminase (PGTE) were detected in high quantity at 10 days (substrate colonization stage) after inoculation while polygalacturonase (PG) was maximum at 20 days (primordia initiation stage) and polymethyl galacturonase (PMG) and pectin transeliminase (PTE) were maximum at 30 days (young stage) after inoculation. Production of cellulase, polygalacturonase, polymethyl galacturonase, pectin transeliminase and polygalacturonase transeliminase at different growth stages, was better at 25°C as compared to 20, 30 and 35°C.
