Formulation Matrix of Enzyme Blends for Agarwood malaccensis Inoculation, tailored by tree age and physiological status. This guide helps select the best combination of cell wall–degrading and resin-enhancing enzymes to support fungal colonization and oleoresin formation across different growth stages.

Enzyme Blend Formulation Matrix by Tree Age

Tree AgeTree StatusRecommended Enzyme BlendPurposeNotes
2–3 yearsYoung, immature xylemMild cellulase (5 mg)
Low xylanase (3 mg)
No laccase
Loosen fibers, prep tissueOnly for pre-conditioning. Not recommended for resin harvest yet.
4–5 yearsEarly resin-forming stageCellulase (10 mg)
– Xylanase (5 mg)
Low laccase (1–2 U/mL)
Stimulate colonization & trigger defenseIdeal time to begin inoculation protocols. Combine with Fusarium oxysporum or abiotic stress.
6–7 yearsPeak vascular activityCellulase (10 mg)
Xylanase (10 mg)
Laccase (5 U/mL)
Maximize tissue breakdown + resin polymerizationMost responsive age for dual-action inoculants. Combine with BioFusion™.
8+ yearsMature, dense woodHigh cellulase (15 mg)
High xylanase (15 mg)
Laccase (10 U/mL)
(Optional) Pectinase (5 mg)
Penetrate tough wood, accelerate dark resin buildupMay require deeper drilling. Strong response to oxidative enzyme blends.
Over-mature / stressed treesReduced vitalityLow cellulase (5 mg)
Laccase (5 U/mL)
Peroxidase (2 U/mL)
Activate residual phenolic defensesUse caution—monitor for overreaction or decay. Ideal for salvage resin induction.

Pectinase800 U/gUse at 0.5–1% w/v

Application Tips

  • Pre-treatment (12–24 hrs before fungal/abiotic inoculant) increases enzyme effectiveness.
  • Maintain pH 4.5–6.0 for optimal enzyme activity.
  • Use fresh solutions; store cool and away from light.
  • Enzyme blends can be delivered via injection or hydrogel carriers.
