Research progress is reported in the delineation of the genetics of cellulase secretion in Trichoderma reesei through the construction of a series of hypersecretory mutants and temperature sensitive mutants and analysis of the genetic lesions through the parasexual cycle and protoplast fusion. The effects of secretion inhibitors, glycosylation inhibitors and membrane perturbing agents on synthesis and secretion of T. reesei cellulases were also studied. (ACR)
