Cellulolytic activity of coprophilic fungi

Fourteen isolates, members of the Ascobolaceae family, representing two widespread genera, Ascobolus and Saccobolus, were obtained from dung of herbivorous animals. All the isolates were capable of growing and producing clearing zones in CMC agar media. The species of Ascobolus gave larger clearing...
