Peach Brown Rot

EDIS, 2020
Brown rot, caused by Monilinia spp., is one of the most economically harmful fungal diseases for peach and other stone fruit growers worldwide. Under the right conditions, the entire tree’s crop can be completely rotted.

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

Changes in Chemical Structure of Thermally Modified Spruce Wood Due to Decaying Fungi

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Fungi play a critical role in the decomposition of wood and wood-based products in use. The ability of decaying fungi to cause degradation of polysaccharides and lignin in the thermally modified Norway spruce (Picea abies L.

Role of Fe2+-dependent Reaction in Biodecolorization of Methyl Orange by Brown-rot Fungus Fomitopsis pinicola

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2022
The involvement of Fenton reaction on biodegradation of methyl orange (MO) by brown-rot fungus Fomitopsis pinicola was investigated based on Fe2+-dependent reaction.

Oxalate Efflux Transporter from the Brown Rot Fungus Fomitopsis palustris [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2010
ABSTRACT An oxalate-fermenting brown rot fungus, Fomitopsis palustris , secretes large amounts of oxalic acid during wood decay. Secretion of oxalic acid is indispensable for the degradation of wood cell walls, but almost nothing is known about the transport mechanism by which oxalic acid is secreted from

Oxidation states of iron and manganese in lignocellulose altered by the brown rot fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum measured in-situ using X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES)

, 2021
Brown rot fungi utilize iron as part of a chelator-mediated Fenton (CMF) reaction during wood biodegradation. Research suggests these fungi reduce Fe3+ to promote oxygen radical generation resulting in depolymerization of the wood cell wall.

Alumina as an Antifungal Agent for Pinus elliottii Wood

Journal of Fungi, 2022
This work deals with the durability of a Pinus elliotti wood impregnated with alumina (Al2O3) particles. The samples were impregnated at three different Al2O3 weight fractions (c.a. 0.1%, 0.3% and 0.5%) and were then exposed to two wood-rot fungi, namely
