A breakthrough for wood decay fungi [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2000 For wood mycologists, the work of Savory (1954a,b) marked an important step in the understanding of decay processes by lignolytic fungi. His description of decay by ascomycete and deuteromycete fungi in wood from industrial water cooling towers revealed a particular pattern observed previously by Bailey & Vestal (1937), Tamblyn (1937) and Barghoorn

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Scots pine heartwood is known to have resistance to wood decay due to the presence of extractives, namely stilbenes and resin acids. However, previous studies have indicated that these extractives are degradable by wood decaying fungi.

Bacteria in decomposing wood and their interactions with wood-decay fungi [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2016 The fungal community within dead wood has received considerable study, but far less attention has been paid to bacteria in the same habitat. Bacteria have long been known to inhabit decomposing wood, but much remains underexplored about their identity and ecology. Bacteria within the dead wood environment must interact with wood-decay fungi, but again,

BMC Microbiology, 2022 Background Fruit bagging is an effective technique for fruit protection in the orchard management. Bagging can create a micro-environment for fruit growth and affect fruit quality during storage, in which the diversity of microorganisms may play an ...

Response of the wood-decay fungus Schizophyllum commune to co-occurring microorganisms.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Microorganisms are constantly interacting in a given environment by a constant exchange of signaling molecules. In timber, wood-decay fungi will come into contact with other fungi and bacteria.

Changes in the Chemical Composition and Decay Resistance of Thermally-Modified Hevea brasiliensis Wood. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 In this study the effect of thermal treatment on the equilibrium moisture content, chemical composition and biological resistance to decay fungi of juvenile and mature Hevea brasiliensis wood (rubber wood) was evaluated. Samples were taken from a 53-year-

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...
