Brown rot fungi cause a type of wood decay characterized by carbohydrate degradation and lignin modification. The chemical and physical changes caused by brown rot are usually studied using bulk analytical methods, but these methods fail to consider ...

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 ...

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

Keawetan Alami Kayu Meranti Merah (Shorea Leprosula Miq.) Hutan Alam dan Hutan Tanaman dari Serangan Jamur Pelapuk Kayu [PDF]
This research was carried out by using JIS method to evaluate natural durability of red meranti (Shorea leprosula Miq.) plantations using Silin system. For comparison, the similiar method was done on S. leprosula from natural forests.

Production and Degradation of Oxalic Acid by Brown Rot Fungi [PDF]
Our results show that all of the brown rot fungi tested produce oxalic acid in liquid as well as in semisolid cultures. Gloeophyllum trabeum , which accumulates the lowest amount of oxalic acid during decay of pine holocellulose, showed the highest polysaccharide-depolymerizing activity.

Enzyme Production by Wood-Rot and Soft-Rot Fungi Cultivated on Corn Fiber Followed by Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation [PDF]
This research aims at developing a biorefinery platform to convert lignocellulosic corn fiber into fermentable sugars at a moderate temperature (37 °C) with minimal use of chemicals.

Outcome of interspecific interactions among brown-rot and white-rot wood decay fungi [PDF]
Interspecific mycelial interactions among brown-rot fungi resulted in either deadlock or replacement of one fungus by the other. Similarly, most of the brown-rot fungi deadlocked with some or all of the whitre-rot fungi tested, while a few were able to replace some of the white-rot fungi.

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.

Effects of gadolinium and tin to the production of oxidative enzymes and the growth of five basidiomycetous fungi [PDF]
Effects of gadolinium (Gd) and tin (Sn) on the growth and production of oxidative enzymes with five basidiomycetous fungi were tested. For this study we have selected well-known white-rot fungi Obba rivulosa and Kuehneromyces mutabilis, in addition to ...

Differences in mycelial turnover and persistence of wood-decay fungi at the microscale. [PDF]
Summary How long do fungal hyphae persist in the environment? And how does this differ between groups and species of fungi? Despite growing knowledge of fungal contributions to decomposition and soil carbon cycles, surprisingly little is known about the turnover of mycelia: What happens to fungal hyphae over time? And how this impacts different fungi's
