Ability of some species of fungi of the Basidiomycetes class to degrade cellulose and lignocellulose substrates

Acta Mycologica, 2014
Studies were carried-out on the ability of 18 strains of 15 white-rot and brown-rot basidiomycetons fungi to degrade wood components and to synthesize cellulolytic enzymes and laccase.

Molecular Karyotype of the White Rot Fungus Pleurotus ostreatus [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1999
ABSTRACT The white rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus is an edible basidiomycete with increasing agricultural and biotechnological importance. Genetic manipulation and breeding of this organism are restricted because of the lack of knowledge about its genomic structure.

Identification of fungal lignocellulose-degrading biocatalysts secreted by Phanerochaete chrysosporium via activity-based protein profiling

Communications Biology, 2022
Activity-based protein profiling is used to screen lignocellulose-degrading enzymes from the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium to identify those specifically active in the presence of wood substrate.

Ganoderma disease of oil palm : a white rot perspective necessary for integrated control [PDF]

, 2007
White rot fungi such as Ganoderma, are extraordinary organisms capable exclusively of degrading lignin to carbon dioxide and water: celluloses are then available as nutrients for the fungus.

Morphological, Pathogenic and Toxigenic Variability in the Rice Sheath Rot Pathogen Sarocladium Oryzae [PDF]

, 2020
Sheath rot is an emerging rice disease that leads to considerable yield losses. The main causal agent is the fungus Sarocladium oryzae. This pathogen is known to produce the toxins cerulenin and helvolic acid, but their role in pathogenicity has not been

Biodegradation of pentachlorophenol by the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1988
Extensive biodegradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) by the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was demonstrated by the disappearance and mineralization of [14C]PCP in nutrient nitrogen-limited culture. Mass balance analyses demonstrated the formation of water-soluble metabolites of [14C]PCP during degradation.

Biotransformation of Araucaria araucana lignans: solid-state fermentation with a naturally occurring Pleurotus ostreatus strain

Rodriguésia, 2022
The effects of a naturally occurring Patagonian strain of the white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus on Araucaria araucana wood lignans was evaluated. Lignans of colonized and non-colonized wood shavings and the activity of fungal ligninolytic enzymes were
