Effect of Treatment with Plant Lectins on Postharvest Strawberry Fruit-Rot [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Protection and Pathology, 2021
Eight lectins, four of which were used in pure forms, i.e. lectins of white bean seeds, red bean (Adzuki) seeds, pea seeds and lentil seeds. The other four were used in crude forms for the first time, i.e.

Using Wood Rot Phenotypes to Illuminate the “Gray” Among Decomposer Fungi

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Wood-decomposing fungi use distinct strategies to deconstruct wood that can significantly vary carbon release rates and fates. White and brown rot-type fungi attack lignin as a prerequisite to access carbohydrates (white rot) or selectively remove ...

Decay capabilities of basidiomycetes colonizing air-seasoning red oak and blackgum railroad ties

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2021
Fungi cultured from air-seasoning blackgum and red oak timbers were assessed for their ability to cause wood decay using two hardwoods and one soft wood species in an AWPA E10 soil block test.

Fungi attacking historic wood of Fort Conger and the Peary Huts in the High Arctic.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Historic wooden structures in Polar Regions are being adversely affected by decay fungi and a warming climate will likely accelerate degradation. Fort Conger and the Peary Huts at Lady Franklin Bay in northern Ellesmere Island are important international

Interactions between mycophagous nematodes, mycorrhizal and other soil fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The hypothesis that mycophagous nematodes feed on the mycelia of VAM fungi and consequently reduce the spread of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) infection in plant roots and the growth response of plants to this infection was investigated in ...

Unveiling of Concealed Processes for the Degradation of Pharmaceutical Compounds by Neopestalotiopsis sp.

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
The presence of pharmaceutical products has raised emerging biorisks in aquatic environments. Fungi have been considered in sustainable approaches for the degradation of pharmaceutical compounds from aquatic environments. Soft rot fungi of the Ascomycota

Investigation of growth responses in saprophytic fungi to charred biomass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present the results of a study testing the response of two saprophytic white-rot fungi species, Pleurotus pulmonarius and Coriolus versicolor, to charred biomass (charcoal) as a growth substrate.

Antagonistic bioagent mechanisms of controlling potato soft rot

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2022
Bacterial antagonists are effective as an alternative to synthetic bactericides in the control of potato soft rot. The use of bioagents reduces the application of synthetic bactericides, which are harmful to humans and the environment.

Screening fungi isolated from historic Discovery Hut on Ross Island, Antarctica for cellulose degradation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
To survive in Antarctica, early explorers of Antarctica's Heroic Age erected wooden buildings and brought in large quantities of supplies. The introduction of wood and other organic materials may have provided new nutrient sources for fungi that were ...

Nitrogen cycling by wood decomposing soft-rot fungi in the “King Midas tomb,” Gordion, Turkey [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001
Archaeological wood in ancient tombs is found usually with extensive degradation, limiting what can be learned about the diet, environment, health, and cultural practices of the tomb builders and occupants. Within Tumulus Midas Mound at Gordion, Turkey, thought to be the tomb of the Phrygian King Midas of the 8th century B.C., we ...
