Evolution of novel wood decay mechanisms in Agaricales revealed by the genome sequences of Fistulina hepatica and Cylindrobasidium torrendii [PDF]
Wood decay mechanisms in Agaricomycotina have been traditionally separated in two categories termed white and brown rot. Recently the accuracy of such a dichotomy has been questioned.

Distinction of the Asiatic brown rot fungus Monilia polystroma sp nov from M-fructigena [PDF]
Monilinia fructigena isolates from Japan were compared with isolates from Europe. General colony characteristics, stroma formation, growth rate and conidial dimensions were determined for six isolates each from both groups, as well as sporulation intensity on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and germ tube features.

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 ...

Oxalate Crystallization under the Action of Brown Rot Fungi
Brown rot fungi belong to the wood-rotting fungi, which produce oxalic acid and actively decompose wood. We first found oxalates formed under the action of brown rot fungi in natural conditions on stone (Rogoselga adit, Karelia, Russia), proposed a model

Fractography of shear failure surface of softwood decayed by brown-rot fungus [PDF]
In order to investigate shear failure surface of decayed wood, wood pieces of ezomatsu (Picea jezoensis) were exposed to brown-rot fungus (Fomitopsis palustris), and standard shear test in radial plane was conducted. The failure surfaces were examined by scanning electron microscopy and surface roughness measurements were also conducted.
