Abstract: Extracellular inulinase producing strain of Penicillium purpurogenum was isolated from rhizosphere soil of chicory. Conidia of this selected strain were subjected to mutagenesis with UV and NTG (3-nitro, 5-methyl guanidine). After mutagenesis, of various colonies screened, few were selected to carry out the inulinase study. The study revealed 2.5-fold higher inulinase activity with 8 to 21-fold I/S ratio in all the selected colonies, indicating the enhancement in inulinase production after both mutagenic treatments in all the selected mutants.
