Involvement of Fenton reaction in DDT degradation by brown-rot fungi

International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation, 2010
In this study, the ability of the brown-rot fungi (BRF) Fomitopsis pinicola and Daedalea dickinsii to degrade DDT (1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis (4-chlorophenyl) ethane) was investigated. F. pinicola and D. dickinsii degraded approximately 63% and 47% of total DDT in potato dextrose broth (PDB) medium, respectively. Degradation of DDT by D.

Three Brown-Rot Fungi in the Corticiaceae

Mycologia, 1982
Crustoderma resinosum and two new species, Crustoderma flavescens and C. opuntiae, are described and illustrated. All are associated with brown rots. Cultural characters are included for all species. Cultures previously reported as Unknown A were found to be iden­ tical to polysporous cultures of C. flavescens. Gilbertson recently reported (1980, 1981)

The ultrastructure of the stroma of the brown rot fungi

Archiv f�r Mikrobiologie, 1969
Most of the hyphae forming the medulla of the stroma of the brown rot fungi are 4–7 μ in diameter and contain food reserves in large vacuoles and lipid bodies. Some stromatal hyphae have very thick walls and perform a protective function. Smaller hyphae (1–2 μ in diameter) form a network through the medulla and their structure suggests that they ...

Biodegradation by Brown Rot Fungi

2002
The decay of lignocellulose is one of the most important processes for all life on earth. Carbon fixed by green plants is recycled back into the atmosphere principally by fungi through the process of lignocellulose decay, estimated at 85 billion tons of carbon per year (Cowling 1963). Wood lignocellulose accounts for most of the biomass on earth, being

Further studies of the brown-rot fungi

Transactions of the British Mycological Society, 1927
Summary A survey is presented of the literature on the nomenclature of the brown-rot fungus generally distributed throughout the fruitgrowing regions of the United States and Canada. The names that have been applied to it are: Sclerotinia fructigena (Pers.) Schrot.; Sclerotinia cinerea (Bon.) Schrot.; Sclerotinia cinerea forma americana Wormald ...
