Draft genome of the brown-rot fungus Fomitopsis pinicola GR9-4 [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2017 Basidiomycete brown-rot fungi have a huge importance for wood decomposition and thus the global carbon cycle. Here, we present the genome sequence of Fomitopsis pinicola GR9-4 which represent different F.

Evidence of Subterranean Termite Feeding Deterrent Produced by Brown Rot Fungus Fibroporia radiculosa (Peck) Parmasto 1968 (Polyporales, Fomitopsidaceae) [PDF]
Insects, 2016 We found that decayed wood stakes with no termite damage collected from a termite-infested field exhibited a deterrent effect against the termite Reticulitermes speratus, Kolbe, 1885. The effect was observed to be lost or reduced by drying.

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

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
