title: Production of polysaccharide hydrolases in the genus Rhizopus.
abstract: Polysaccharide hydrolase activity was assayed in a group of 28 selected Rhizopus strains. The production of lichenases, mannanases, cellulases, xylanases, amylases and pullulanases was demonstrated using the gel-testing method during growth of the strains on suitably meshed polysaccharide gels.
