Abstract
Many plants cell wall contain pectin and it degrades by the microorganisms for their
growth.Pectinase have been used in several conventional industrial processes over the years, such
as textile, plant fiber processing and tea.In order to study the production of pectinase by ten
dominating fungal species associated with vegetable waste were tested on substrate (pectin nitrate)
and non substrate (glucose nitrate) medium. Pectinase activity was determined by viscometrical
method.
