Fig. 1From: Cold-active pectinolytic activity produced by filamentous fungi associated with Antarctic marine spongesPectinolytic activity of Antarctic fungi from marine sponges on agar plates. Pectinolytic activity expressed as EAI was calculated as the halo/colony diameter (h/c) ratio. Only those isolates whose EAI was higher than 1.0 are shown. The name and code of each fungal isolate is indicated under each bar. Temperature of assay was 15 °C. Each experiment was done in triplicate, and error bars indicate the SD of mean values. Differences in pectinolytic activity detected were not statistically significant (p < 0.05 using Student’s-t test)Back to article page
