Occurrence of N-acetylhexosaminidase-encoding genes in ectomycorrhizal basidiomycetes

•  The genetic potential of ectomycorrhizal fungi to produce N-acetylhexosaminidases was investigated here. N-acetylhexosaminidases are enzymes that cleave monosaccharides from oligomers of N-acetylhexosamines and play an important role in the degradation of chitin. •  Degenerate PCR-primers were de...
