Effects of Fungus Trametes versicolor and Coniophora puteana study,on the Mass loss of Wood/Polypropylene Composites. [PDF]
Wood polymer composites (wpc) have been extracting used for building Products, Automotive, Packaging materials and another applications. Wpc is subject to fungal attack due to wood components. Early detection of wood decay is critical because decay fungi

insertion of chemical agents, which are subject to leaching when exposed to weathering. In this context, the thermo-mechanical modification seeks to increase the durability of wood, without polluting the environment.

Effect of Brown-Rot Fungi on Cellulose
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

Comparative Assessment of Antifungal Potential of Clove (Eugenia caryophyllata) and Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) Essential Oils [PDF]
The paper refers to the comparative evaluation of the potential antifungal effect of two essential oils: clove (Eugenia caryophyllata) essential oil and cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) essential oil, against a brown rot fungus (Postia placenta) and a white

The mycoflora was investigated under the conditions of climax spruce stands in the Krkonoše Mountains in relation to wood decomposition. The areas under observation have been affected more or less by air pollution since the eighties.

ABSTRACT Papaya (Carica papaya L.) production and marketability are strongly constrained by postharvest diseases, with anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. representing the most significant threat. Traditional control relies on synthetic fungicides, which, although effective, face challenges such as the development of pathogen resistance ...

Multi-omic Analyses of Extensively Decayed Pinus contorta Reveal Expression of a Diverse Array of Lignocellulose-Degrading Enzymes. [PDF]
Fungi play a key role cycling nutrients in forest ecosystems, but the mechanisms remain uncertain. To clarify the enzymatic processes involved in wood decomposition, the metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics of extensively decayed lodgepole pine were ...

Impacts of Biostimulants on Nitrous Oxide Emissions and the Soil Microbiome
Soil incubation experiment examining the influence of biostimulants on greenhouse gas emissions and the soil microbiome in fertilized soils. ABSTRACT Background Overapplication of nitrogenous fertilizer and enhanced microbial activity in agricultural soils are drivers of increasing greenhouse gas emissions.

Brown rot fungi have great potential in biorefinery wood conversion systems because they are the primary wood decomposers in coniferous forests and have an efficient lignocellulose degrading system.

Molecular characterization and biodiversity of wood-decaying fungi in French Guiana [PDF]
Fungi from tropical regions are currently under-represented in the classification system. Indeed, difficult access to tropical forests and irregular occurrence carpophores make it complicated to study fungus species in such environments, unlike in ...
