Biosorption potential of lead tolerant fungi isolated from refuse dumpsite soil in Nigeria

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2020
Metals are non-biodegradable and recurrent in the environs. Heavy metals tolerant fungi were isolated from refuse dumpsite soil using pour plate method. These fungi were identified as Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum and Rhizomucor sp.

How a fungus shapes biotechnology: 100 years of Aspergillus niger research

Fungal Biology and Biotechnology, 2018
In 1917, a food chemist named James Currie made a promising discovery: any strain of the filamentous mould Aspergillus niger would produce high concentrations of citric acid when grown in sugar medium.

RNAseq reveals hydrophobins that are involved in the adaptation of aspergillus nidulans to lignocellulose [PDF]

, 2016
Background Sugarcane is one of the world’s most profitable crops. Waste steam-exploded sugarcane bagasse (SEB) is a cheap, abundant, and renewable lignocellulosic feedstock for the next-generation biofuels.

Ochratoxin A production by strains of Aspergillus niger var. niger [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1994
In a survey of the occurrence of ochratoxin A (OA)-positive strains isolated from feedstuffs, two of the 19 isolates of Aspergillus niger var. niger that were studied produced OA in 2% yeast extract-15% sucrose broth and in corn cultures. This is the first report of production of OA by this species.

Updating genome annotation for the microbial cell factory Aspergillus niger using gene co-expression networks

bioRxiv, 2018
A significant challenge in our understanding of biological systems is the high number of genes with unknown function in many genomes. The fungal genus Aspergillus contains important pathogens of humans, model organisms, and microbial cell factories ...

Succession of physiological stages hallmarks the transcriptomic response of the fungus Aspergillus niger to lignocellulose. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundUnderstanding how fungi degrade lignocellulose is a cornerstone of improving renewables-based biotechnology, in particular for the production of hydrolytic enzymes.

Construction of an improved Aspergillus niger platform for enhanced glucoamylase secretion

Microbial Cell Factories, 2018
BackgroundThe lifestyle of filamentous fungi depends on the secretion of hydrolytic enzymes into the surrounding medium, which degrade polymeric substances into monomers that are then taken up to sustain metabolism.
