A study of Chaetomium in cellulose decay [PDF]
Only in recent years has there been any extensive investigation of fungi capable of attacking and utilizing cellulose materials. During this period many genera have been shown to be active cellulose destroyers.

Soil‐borne fungal diseases in Aotearoa New Zealand pastures: a significant research blind spot
ABSTRACT In Aotearoa New Zealand (AoNZ), where pastoral agriculture is vital to the economy, reports of pasture plant species failing to persist in long‐term pastures, particularly in northern regions, are increasingly common. The underlying cause of this decline in pasture persistence remains elusive.

CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM IN CHAETOMIUM GLOBOSUM [PDF]
SummaryExtracts of Chaetomium globosum contained an unstable, NAD‐dependent mannitol dehydrogenase, oxidizing mannitol to fructose. The enzyme had a low affinity for its substrates but showed high activity in vitro. Compared to fructose, exogenous mannitol was poorly utilized by the fungus.

Exploring Unspecific Peroxygenase Selectivity with Diverse Hydrocarbon Substrates
Unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs) are versatile enzymes that can be used for different reactions. However, selectivity of UPOs needs to be evaluated for the desired application. Thus, the selectivity of a panel of UPOs was evaluated in this work, and it revealed diverse reactivity profiles depending on the enzyme and substrate.

Soils amended with chitin or black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) frass reduced Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae propagules compared to non‐amended soil. Changes observed in microbial communities could be involved. Abstract BACKGROUND Organic soil amendments rich in chitin have demonstrated significant potential promoting suppressive soils.

PBS‐based biodegradable composites were compounded with neat, surface‐modified flax fiber to develop sustainable, water‐repellent, mechanically, and thermally stable bio‐based packaging material. ABSTRACT Applying surface modification routes to natural fibers is a practical option for solving the incompatibility problem in polymeric composites.

This study introduced Pedobacter sp. DDGJ into morel hyphal cells and determined the effect of artificial endosymbiosis on morel growth, stress resistance and productivity. ABSTRACT True morels are precious edible and medicinal mushrooms. The sustainable development of morel cultivation necessitates urgent breeding programmes to develop improved ...

A Peroxygenase from Chaetomium globosum Catalyzes the Selective Oxygenation of Testosterone [PDF]
AbstractUnspecific peroxygenases (UPO, EC 1.11.2.1) secreted by fungi open an efficient way to selectively oxyfunctionalize diverse organic substrates, including less‐activated hydrocarbons, by transferring peroxide‐borne oxygen. We investigated a cell‐free approach to incorporate epoxy and hydroxyl functionalities directly into the bulky molecule ...
