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
… it difficult 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 …

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 …

The physiological response of the white-rot fungus, Schizophyllum commune to Trichoderma Viride, during interspecific mycelial combat
… response patterns and adaptations of the white-rot fungus, Schizophyllum commune to a highly antagonistic strain of Trichoderma viride, by correlating the expression patterns of metabolites, proteins and selected genes of Schizophyllum commune in response to the antagonist. The study also …

Fungal Degradation Properties of Young Small Diameter Genetically Modified Quaking Aspen (Populus tremuloides)
… willow (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 …

Processing of Hemp Fibre Using Enzyme/Fungal Treatment for Composites
… low environmental 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 …

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
… classified by the physical properties of the rotted wood as white, brown, and soft rot fungi – with brown and white rot fungi being the most efficient. These properties are correlated with important genetic and regulatory differences that distinguish the different modes of decay. Recently, it …

Pleurotus ostreatus production on Cannabis sativa, L. (Industrial Hemp) Residues for Edible Mushrooms and Mycelium-based Composites
… environmental 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 …

Purification and characterization of methyl chloride transferase: A novel halogenating enzyme
… be detected by the haloperoxidase mechanism. The white rot fungus, Phellinus pomaceus has been known to produce methyl chloride in vivo. After determining appropriate growth conditions for optimal methyl chloride production, we have partially purified an enzyme from this fungus which produces …

Lignin biodegradation: reduced oxygen species
… as 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
… 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 rich cellulose. Though these …

Biocatalytic studies of phenol oxidases producing antioxidants
… application of laccase, obtained from the white rot fungi Trametes pubescens, in the synthesis of organic compounds which are dimers or polymers, and in the development of bioprocesses of potential economic importance. The focus of this study is, particularly, on the effect of organic …

Utilization of the Phanerochaete chrysosporium ligninolytic system and the potential for toxaphene degradation
The idiophasic production of nonspecific extracellular enzymes by the Basidiomycete fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, referred to as the ligninolytic system, has been reported by many researchers to be capable of degrading a broad spectrum of environmentally persistent compounds including some …

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, …

Detection and analysis of the wood decay fungus <i>Lentinus Lepideus </i>Fr. using immunological probes
… probes (antibodies) were raised in New Zealand White rabbits against the wood decay fungus <i>Lentinus lepideus</i> Fr. and thereafter employed in a variety of immunological techniques to (i) develop an immunodetection system for the fungus and (ii) to analyse L. lepideus antigens. Preliminary …
