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