Evolutionary dynamics of host specialization in wood-decay fungi

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background The majority of wood decomposing fungi are mushroom-forming Agaricomycetes, which exhibit two main modes of plant cell wall decomposition: white rot, in which all plant cell wall components are degraded, including lignin, and brown rot, in ...

The influence of fiber chemical treatment on prevention of biologic deterioration of medium density fiberboard (MDF) [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات علوم چوب و کاغذ ایران, 2014
In this research, the effects of acetylation on the prevention of white-rot and brown-rot fungi deterioration in medium density fiberboard (MDF) were investigated.

Taxonomy and phylogeny of brown-rot corticioid fungi in China: Coniophora beijingensis and Veluticeps subfasciculata spp. nov.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Brown-rot fungi account for a small portion of the wood-decaying fungi. There are a few corticioid genera causing brown rot of wood, and their species diversity is still under investigated and studied, especially in subtropical and tropical areas.

Stromatal Rind Formation in the Brown Rot Fungi [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1968
SUMMARY: The development in culture of a stromatal rind of Sclerotinia fructicola was studied with a light microscope and the surfaces of stromata of the brown rot fungi grown on agar cultures and on fruits were examined with a Stereoscan electron microscope.

Molecular characterization of a novel thermostable laccase PPLCC2 from the brown rot fungus Postia placenta MAD-698-R

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2015
Background: Laccase has been considered important for the degradation of lignocellulose by wood rot fungi. The properties and functions of laccase in white rot fungi have been investigated extensively, but those from brown rot fungi remain largely ...

Hallmarks of Basidiomycete Soft- and White-Rot in Wood-Decay -Omics Data of Two Armillaria Species

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Wood-decaying Basidiomycetes are among the most efficient degraders of plant cell walls, making them key players in forest ecosystems, global carbon cycle, and in bio-based industries. Recent insights from -omics data revealed a high functional diversity

Decay Resistance of Carbonized Wood Surfaces

open access: yesDüzce Üniversitesi Bilim ve Teknoloji Dergisi, 2020
In this study, decay resistance of carbonized wood surfaces by combustion method was examined. In this context either single or five geometrical surfaces of Scots pine and beech wood specimens were carbonized and exposed toConiophora puteana(brown rot ...

Effect of Brown-Rot Fungi on Cellulose

open access: yes, 1989
Brown-rot fungi cause the most destructive form of wood decay. These fungi secrete agents that bring about a rapid depolymerization of cellulose (to the “limit” degree of polymerization [DP]) before significant loss of wood substance occurs; in both cases attack initially is in the amorphous regions. Acid hydrolysis has a similar effect on cellulose as

Bioactivity of ethanol extracts from Eucalyptus bosistoana F. Muell. heartwood

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2019
Variability in bioactivity and chemical composition of Eucalyptus bosistoana F. Muell. heartwood extracts between individual trees from two different sites were investigated. Combining the results of fungal assays and quantitative gas chromatography (GC)

Decay capabilities of basidiomycetes colonizing air-seasoning red oak and blackgum railroad ties

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2021
Fungi cultured from air-seasoning blackgum and red oak timbers were assessed for their ability to cause wood decay using two hardwoods and one soft wood species in an AWPA E10 soil block test.
