Evolutionary dynamics of host specialization in wood-decay fungi [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018 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 ...

A Metagenomic Survey of Wood Decay Fungi in the Urban Trees of Singapore. [PDF]
J Fungi (Basel), 2023 Mature tropical urban trees are susceptible to root and trunk rot caused by pathogenic fungi. A metagenomic survey of such fungi was carried out on 210 soil and tissue samples collected from 134 trees of 14 common species in Singapore. Furthermore, 121 fruiting bodies were collected and barcoded.

Cytochrome P450 Complement May Contribute to Niche Adaptation in Serpula Wood-Decay Fungi [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Serpula wood-decay fungi occupy a diverse range of natural and man-made ecological niches. Serpula himantioides is a forest-floor generalist with global coverage and strong antagonistic ability, while closely related species Serpula lacrymans contains ...

Diversity of Endophytic Fungi Isolated from Prunus yedoensis and Their Antifungal Activity Against Wood Decay Fungi [PDF]
MicroorganismsEndophytic fungi play a vital role in protecting and promoting the growth of their host plants. The diversity of fungal endophytes has been documented across different host plant species and varies depending on factors such as the species of the host ...

Differences in mycelial turnover and persistence of wood-decay fungi at the microscale. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary 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 ...

PREPARATIONS BASED ON WOOD-DECAY FUNGI
Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2014 There is a large variety of basidiomycetes in the world including xylotrophicfungi which pharmacological properties are scarcely studied. So they are a promising research object for pharmacology, biotechnology, medicine, and veterinary medicine.

Reintroduction of lignin-modifying enzymes in the brown-rot fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum restores ligninolytic activities but diminishes lignocellulose degradation [PDF]
Fungal Biology and BiotechnologyFungi have evolved two distinct strategies, white-rot and brown-rot, to degrade lignocellulose in plant biomass. White-rot fungi utilize lignin-modifying enzymes (LMEs) to deconstruct lignin and access carbohydrates, whereas brown-rot fungi, which arose ...

Interference of wood decay, growth, and infection of Ganoderma boninense by ligninolytic fungi from herbaceous plants [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Basal stem rot (BSR) disease caused by Ganoderma boninense is the most destructive disease in oil palm plantations. Herbaceous plants such as arrowroot, cocoyam, and canna were reported to interfere with the Ganoderma disease of oil palm under mixed ...
