Evolution of novel wood decay mechanisms in Agaricales revealed by the genome sequences of Fistulina hepatica and Cylindrobasidium torrendii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Evolution of substrate-specific gene expression and RNA editing in brown rot wood-decaying fungi. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fungi that decay wood have characteristic associations with certain tree species, but the mechanistic bases for these associations are poorly understood.

Animals and Fungi are Each Other's Closest Relatives: Congruent Evidence from Multiple Proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Phylogenetic relationships among plants, animals, and fungi were examined by using sequences from 25 proteins. Four insertions/deletions were found that are shared by two of the three taxonomic groups in question, and all four are uniquely shared by ...

Fungal Degradation of Extractives Plays an Important Role in the Brown Rot Decay of Scots Pine Heartwood

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Assessment of decay risk of airborne wood-decay fungi

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2010
The decay risk of airborne wood-decay fungi was investigated by using an air sampler. Japanese cedar disks 7.8 cm in diameter and about 3 mm in thickness with moisture content of about 100% were placed in a “BIOSAMP” air sampler and exposed to 1000 l air.

High Oxygen Shocking Reduces Postharvest Disease and Maintains Satisfying Quality in Fresh Goji Berries during Cold Storage by Affecting Fungi Community Composition

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Fresh goji (Lycium barbarum L.) berries were treated with high-concentration (50% and 90%) oxygen shocking for 30 min and then stored at 0 ± 0.5 °C for 30 d.

Response of the wood-decay fungus Schizophyllum commune to co-occurring microorganisms.

open access: yesPLoS 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.

The influence of forest regrowth, original canopy cover and tree size on saproxylic beetles associated with old oaks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Abandoned management has caused many sites with free-standing, large oaks (Quercus robur) to become more shaded. This study shows how forest regrowth affects beetle species associated with old oaks in south-eastern Sweden. Beetles were trapped by pitfall

Isolation and Characterisation of Bacterial Metabolites as Potential Wood Preservatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The durability of wood has traditionally relied on the use of heavy metals and toxic compounds to deter wood degrading fungi. Conventional wood preservatives such as Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) have been widely used to control wood degrade for many ...
