The Effects of Nitrogenous Compounds on Decay of Wood by Soft-Rot Fungi
… as free amino acids, those bound in soluble proteins and those bound in insoluble protein, The amino acid content of the soft-rot organism, Chaetomium globosum Kunze ex Fr., was also determined and found to be similar in amino acid range and ratio, but lower in magnitude than the timbers. The …

Synergistic effect on wood degradation by interspecific interactions of white and brown rot fungi
Wood-rotting fungi play an important role in carbon and nitrogen cycles in nature. They have different strategies for wood degradation and utilization of nutrients. Traditionally, wood-rotting fungi have been classified as white rot, brown rot, and soft rot fungi based on the differences in their …

A Fungal secretome tailored to enable a radical (oxidative) wood decay mechanism in brown rot fungi
… being degraded by most organisms. Wood degrading fungi have evolved mechanisms to handle the lignin barrier effectively and harness the carbon present in wood, which makes them also plausible biological templates for industry-related applications such as the production of biofuels. However, there …

Degradation of hydrocarbon components in mix/bury/cover drilling waste using the white rot fungi Pleurotus ostreatus
… a form of bioremediation using Pleurotus ostreatus (P.ostreatus), was carried out. The experiment was run in a factorial design and consisted of various levels of amendments, which include calcium nitrate and surfactant. A total of five levels of treatments were found to be effective …

Processing of Hemp Fibre Using Enzyme/Fungal Treatment for Composites
… impact such as bag retting and white rot fungi, and chelator/enzyme treatments which could be applied to hemp fibre in order to create better bonding fibre for potentially recyclable composite materials. Bag retting was carried out by keeping fresh green hemp fibres in a sealed plastic …

Pleurotus ostreatus production on Cannabis sativa, L. (Industrial Hemp) Residues for Edible Mushrooms and Mycelium-based Composites
… pollution, can be found in using white rot fungi to valorize our planet's most abundant and regenerative natural resource – plant biomass containing lignocellulose. From residual dry plant matter, white rot fungi can be employed through a solid-state fermentation process to produce a …

Characterization of the White-rot Fungus, Phanerochaete carnosa, through Proteomic Methods and Compositional Analysis of Decayed Wood FibreCharacterization of the White-rot Fungus, Phanerochaete carnosa, through Proteomic Methods and Compositional Analysis of Decayed Wood Fibre
… to predict conversion efficiencies. White-rot fungi are among the most efficient degraders of plant fibre (lignocellulose), capable of degrading cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Phanerochaete carnosa is a white-rot fungus that, in contrast to many white-rot fungi that have been studied …

Extracellular Enzyme Production and Wood Degradation by Freshwater Lignicolous Fungi
In terrestrial habitats, fungi, especially white- and brown-rot fungi, are important decomposers of wood. It is not known, however, whether fungi play a comparable role in freshwater systems. Although numerous fungal species have been reported from submerged wood, little is known about their …

Lignin biodegradation: reduced oxygen species
… well as in contrived fermentation systems. White-rot and soft-rot fungi, as well as Actinomycetes, are apparently the most active lignin degraders in nature. The large, cross-linked, polymeric structure of the lignin macromolecule makes its direct uptake, during the initial stages of its …

Microbial transformation of lignin
… versicolor, Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Sporotrichum pulverulentum, which being white-rot fungi are traditional lignin degraders, were found to be much less efficient in lignin metabolism than Aspergillus fumigatus, a soft-rot fungus isolated in our laboratory. Lignin fermentations with …

Pilot-scale production and physicochemical properties of mycelium-based materials and diversity assessment of a fungal biobank
… to conventional synthetic materials used in protective packaging, insulation, and other applications. Lightweight, water-resistant biomaterials can be produced by using mycelium as a binding agent for agricultural byproducts. In this study, we investigated the production and physicochemical …

Creation of a Binary CuSO4 Inducible gene expression system in Arabidopsis thaliana and its application to the degradation of Lignin in planta
… out almost exclusively by a sub-kingdom of fungi, known as basidiomycetes (white-rot fungi), which secrete different enzymes acting both separately, and in synergy, to degrade lignin signifcantly enough for these organisms to mineralize it to CO2 and thus gain access to the plants energy …

Ecological studies of fungi growing on isolated wood
The widespread occurrence of thermophilous microfungi on wood is reported.. Imported timber, in-service timber joinery and wood employed in colonization experiments were sampled and a list of cellulolytic fungi including thermophilous and soft rot fungi is submitted. The influence of insolation on …

Enhanced large-scale production of laccases from Coriolopsis polyzona for use in dye bioremediation
… foods and beverages. It is known that white rot fungi can decolourise and detoxify various industrial effluents through the production of extracellular lignin modifying enzymes, a major class of which are laccases (EC 1.10.3.2). Considering the above, three strains of white rot fungi, …

Investigating the lignocellulolytic gut microbiome of huhu grubs
… expected to host a wide range of bacteria and fungi in their gut, some of which produce lignocellulose degrading enzymes. Assessment of the gut fungal community composition confirmed that cellulose-reared huhu grubs were significantly distinct from lignocellulose-reared grubs. The fungal …

Fungal Degradation Properties of Young Small Diameter Genetically Modified Quaking Aspen (Populus tremuloides)
… (Salix sp.) trees were examined using the white rot fungi Trametes versicolor and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora. An agar plate method and a modified soil-agar block method were compared using non-standard size stem parts. The agar plate method did not prove to be suitable for testing materials when …

Effect of benomyl, Topsin-M, and Botran against Monilinia fructicola and Rhizopus nigricans on peach and nectarine fruits and in vitro
… nigricans Erh., the causal organisms of brown rot and Rhizopus rot, respectively, have long been recognized as the two major causes of post-harvest rots on peach and nectarine fruits. Fruit losses of as much as 50% may occur during storage, transport, and marketing from these two diseases if …
