Using Wood Rot Phenotypes to Illuminate the “Gray” Among Decomposer Fungi
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 ...

Syringic Acid Metabolism by Some White-rot, Soft-rot and Brown-rot Fungi [PDF]
Syringic acid metabolism by four white-rot, two soft-rot, and two brown-rot fungi has been studied. The pathways for syringic acid metabolism have been studied in detail for the white-rot fungus,Sporotrichum pulverulentum, and a reaction sequence proposed.

Exploration of essential oils as alternatives to conventional fungicides in lupin cultivation [PDF]
Lupin (Lupinus L.) has the potential to become a true alternative for soybean as protein source, especially in the more temperate regions in the world. However, diseases such as anthracnose (Colletotrichum lupini), gray mold (Botrytis cinerea), and root ...

Evolutionary dynamics of host specialization in wood-decay fungi
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 ...
