A reverse chemical ecology approach to explore wood natural durability [PDF]

, 2020
The natural durability of wood species, defined as their inherent resistance to wood‐destroying agents, is a complex phenomenon depending on many biotic and abiotic factors.

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

, 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

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.

Assessment of decay risk of airborne wood-decay fungi

Journal 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

Foods, 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.

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.

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

, 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 ...

Neurospora from natural populations: Population genomics insights into the Life history of a model microbial Eukaryote [PDF]

, 2020
The ascomycete filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa played a historic role in experimental biology and became a model system for genetic research. Stimulated by a systematic effort to collect wild strains initiated by Stanford geneticist David Perkins ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting
