A Fungal Secretome Adapted for Stress Enabled a Radical Wood Decay Mechanism
mBio, 2021 Brown rot fungi release massive amounts of carbon from forest deadwood, particularly at high latitudes. These fungi degrade wood by generating small reactive oxygen species (ROS) to loosen lignocellulose, to then selectively remove carbohydrates. The ROS

<i>In Vitro</i> and <i>In Planta</i> Botanical Control of Banana Postharvest Disease Causing Fungi. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrBotanical (Aloevera + Garlic) extract reduced the L. theobromae growth (in vitro) and postharvest disease (crown‐rot and brown spot or fruit freckle) development (in planta) in banana without any adverse effect on the physiochemical properties such as weight, colour, firmness and TSS.

Using Wood Rot Phenotypes to Illuminate the “Gray” Among Decomposer Fungi
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Wood-decomposing fungi use distinct strategies to deconstruct wood that can significantly vary carbon release rates and fates. White and brown rot-type fungi attack lignin as a prerequisite to access carbohydrates (white rot) or selectively remove ...

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Brown rot fungi are primary decomposers of wood and litter in northern forests. Relative to other microbes, these fungi have evolved distinct mechanisms that rapidly depolymerize and metabolize cellulose and hemicellulose without digesting the more ...

Degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol and pentachlorophenol by two brown rot fungi [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1999 Wheat straw cultures of the brown rot fungi Gloeophyllum striatum and G. trabeum degraded 2,4-dichlorophenol and pentachorophenol. Up to 54% and 27% 14CO2, respectively, were liberated from uniformly 14C-labeled substrates within 6 weeks. Under identical conditions Trametes versicolor, a typical white rot species employed as reference, evolved up to 42%

Production and Degradation of Oxalic Acid by Brown Rot Fungi [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1991 Our results show that all of the brown rot fungi tested produce oxalic acid in liquid as well as in semisolid cultures. Gloeophyllum trabeum , which accumulates the lowest amount of oxalic acid during decay of pine holocellulose, showed the highest polysaccharide-depolymerizing activity.

Gene Regulation Shifts Shed Light on Fungal Adaption in Plant Biomass Decomposers
mBio, 2019 Fungi dominate the recycling of carbon sequestered in woody biomass. This process of organic turnover was first evolved among “white rot” fungi that degrade lignin to access carbohydrates and later evolved multiple times toward more efficient strategies ...

Influence of fungal decay on durability and hardness strength characteristics of bagasse/PP composite [PDF]
تحقیقات علوم چوب و کاغذ ایران, 2010 In this study the effect of white and brown-rot fungi on durability and hardness characteristics of Bagasse/Polypropylene composite was evaluated. The test specimens were prepared using Bagasse fibers (38%), Polypropylene (60%), and maleic anhydride (2%)

Evolution of novel wood decay mechanisms in Agaricales revealed by the genome sequences of Fistulina hepatica and Cylindrobasidium torrendii [PDF]
, 2015 Wood decay mechanisms in Agaricomycotina have been traditionally separated in two categories termed white and brown rot. Recently the accuracy of such a dichotomy has been questioned.
