Molecular characterization of a novel thermostable laccase PPLCC2 from the brown rot fungus Postia placenta MAD-698-R

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2015
Background: Laccase has been considered important for the degradation of lignocellulose by wood rot fungi. The properties and functions of laccase in white rot fungi have been investigated extensively, but those from brown rot fungi remain largely ...

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

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 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

Population Structure of Brown Rot Fungi on Stone Fruits in China [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2011
In total, 455 Monilinia isolates from stone fruits collected from several provinces (cities) in China from 2003 to 2009 were identified to species based on morphological characteristics, molecular identification, and the sequence of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions 1 and 2 and the 5.8S gene of the ribosomal RNA. Overall, four species were

Decay Resistance of Carbonized Wood Surfaces

open access: yesDüzce 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 ...

Tolerance of brown-rot and dry-rot fungi to CCA and ACQ wood preservatives

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry, 2010
Copper remains the primary biocide component used today to protect wood. Increased interest in the use of non-arsenic copper-based wood preservatives has also led to increased studies on copper-tolerant decay fungi. Oxalic acid production by brown-rot fungi is proposed as one mechanism of copper tolerance.

Degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol and pentachlorophenol by two brown rot fungi [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1999
Wheat straw cultures of the brown rot fungi Gloeophyllum striatum and G. trabeum degraded 2,4-dichlorophenol and pentachorophenol. Up to 54% and 27% 14CO2, respectively, were liberated from uniformly 14C-labeled substrates within 6 weeks. Under identical conditions Trametes versicolor, a typical white rot species employed as reference, evolved up to 42%

Bioactivity of ethanol extracts from Eucalyptus bosistoana F. Muell. heartwood

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2019
Variability in bioactivity and chemical composition of Eucalyptus bosistoana F. Muell. heartwood extracts between individual trees from two different sites were investigated. Combining the results of fungal assays and quantitative gas chromatography (GC)

Decay capabilities of basidiomycetes colonizing air-seasoning red oak and blackgum railroad ties

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2021
Fungi cultured from air-seasoning blackgum and red oak timbers were assessed for their ability to cause wood decay using two hardwoods and one soft wood species in an AWPA E10 soil block test.

Effect of Brown-Rot Fungi on Cellulose

open access: yes, 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

Stromatal Rind Formation in the Brown Rot Fungi [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1968
SUMMARY: The development in culture of a stromatal rind of Sclerotinia fructicola was studied with a light microscope and the surfaces of stromata of the brown rot fungi grown on agar cultures and on fruits were examined with a Stereoscan electron microscope.
