Table 1 Initial screening for saccharification of Saueda fruticose (SF), Ipomea pes-caprae (IPC), Halopyrum mucronatum (HM) and Phragmites karka (PK). Residues from halophytes (either treated or untreated) were subjected to crude or purified Xylanase from Neobacillus sendimentimangrovi UE25 for 24 h and reducing sugars were estimated
