EXTRACTION OF CHITINASE ENZYME FROM CHITINOLYTIC FUNGI AND EVALUATION OF ITS ROLE IN PLANT DEFENSE AGAINST PHYTOPATHOGENIC FUNGI

Abstract: Phytopathogenic fungi result in a significant loss in agricultural production. The use of bio fungicides to manage these fungal pathogens has become a more appealing option than using conventional synthetic fungicides since they are relatively environmentally safe. Chitinolytic enzymes are environmentally friendly antifungal agents used to control fungal phytopathogens. Therefore, this study was conducted to extract chitinase enzyme from fungi and determine the fungicidal effect of...
