Bacillus megaterium HDYM-09 produced pectin lyase that exhibited the highest activity of 2116.71 ± 11.55 U/mL. Bacillus licheniformis HDYM-03 produced pectate lyase that exhibited the highest activity of 611.21 ± 14.54 U/mL. Based on these fi ndings, we constructed four retting systems to degrade the pectin substance. The results showed that the content of galacturonic acid in the mixed system was 529.21 μg/mL, the content of reducing sugar was 98.14 mg/mL, and the weight loss ratio of cells reached 19.49%, which were signifi cantly higher than those in other systems. The mixed system has more advantages, and the utilization rate of degumming was higher, which further ensured that the degumming can be carried out effi ciently and quickly. The mixed system exhibits feasible applications in the fi ber and textile industry.展开更多

Nodules developed within 50 days.Photomicrograph of nodule cells showed that the capsulated bacteria were intrarellular.Rhizobia reisolated from the root nodules retained not only the ability of nodulation but also the characteristic of resistance to 100 μg neomycin mL-1.A low nitrogenaSe activity of the nodules was determined by the method of acetylene reduction.展开更多
