Filter paper degradation by isolates CDB 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 cultured in basal salt medium supplemented with Whatman filter paper no.1 (1 × 6 cm strip × 2, 0.05 g per 20 mL) at the end of 96 hrs of incubation. Flask FP C is the control for this experimental set up and does not show any filter paper degradation.
