The present study undertaken to evaluate vegetables wastes as a substrate for amylase production by solid state fermentation by Aspergillus niger originally isolated from marine water. Among 123 different fungal isolates reported,35 isolates belong to Aspergillus niger showed strong amylase activity. The wastes supported growth and enzyme activity at all parameters tested.Maximum activity was recorded at 0% moisture content,70 C and pH 9 at all incubation time

Key words: Amylase, Aspergillus niger,enzyme activity
