Abstract

Ectomycorrhizal fungi benefit host plant by absorbing phosphorus with the help of acid and alkaline phosphatases. Acid and alkaline phosphatases are cell wall-bound enzymes. Cantharellus tropicalis were grown in axenic cultures to determine the activity of acid phosphatase by a quantitative colorimetric method. The effects of pH and temperature on the activity of surface acid phosphatase were also studied. Results showed that the optimal pH and temperature of the C. tropicalis strain were 4 and 40 o C respectively.
