Abstract: Twenty-eight Cellulase-producing strains were isolated from intestinal canal of Dendrolimu houi. Basing on biochemical, physiological characterization and 16S rRNA sequences blasting, these strains were classifiedinto Enterobacter sp. , Bacillus sp. , Klebsiella sp. and Yokenella sp. . Strain DK4 was found as a higher-yield strainfor cellulase in these strains. A phylogenetic tree was constructed with the published 16S rRNA sequences of relativebacteria species. In the phylogenetic tree, the strain DK4 was in the branch with the Bacillus cereus strain NAV-10( GU056811 . 1 ) . The highest cellulase activity of DK4 strain was 19. 24 U /mL when grown at 35℃ , pH 7. 0 for 70 h.
