A Fungal Secretome Adapted for Stress Enabled a Radical Wood Decay Mechanism
mBio, 2021 Brown rot fungi release massive amounts of carbon from forest deadwood, particularly at high latitudes. These fungi degrade wood by generating small reactive oxygen species (ROS) to loosen lignocellulose, to then selectively remove carbohydrates. The ROS

Fungal ecological strategies reflected in gene transcription - a case study of two litter decomposers. [PDF]
, 2019 Microbial communities interplay with their environment through their functional traits that can be a response or an effect on the environment. Here, we explore how a functional trait-the decomposition of organic matter, can be addressed based on genetic ...

CAZymes from the thermophilic fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus are induced by C5 and C6 sugars
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021 Background Filamentous fungi are excellent lignocellulose degraders, which they achieve through producing carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes). CAZyme production is highly orchestrated and gene expression analysis has greatly expanded understanding of ...

Fusarium graminearum as a producer of xylanases with low cellulases when grown on wheat bran
Biotechnology Reports, 2022 The xylanolytic potential of endophytic fungi isolated from leaves of Theobroma cacao was explored for the first time. Four fungal strains showed significant amounts of xylanase activity and low cellulase levels when grown on wheat bran as the sole ...
