Biodegradation of Cinnamates by White-Rot Fungus, Phlebia Radiata [PDF]

Journal of the Faculty of Agriculture, Kyushu University, 2009
th day of the cultivation. The evolution of carbon dioxide from aliphatic chain cleavage cinnamate showed very similar trend which demonstrated simultaneous process with the decarboxylation ones on all tested media. About 30% of carbon dioxide evolved from carboxyl-labeled cinnamate. The radioactivity in the mycelium was also above 10% in all cases and

Systemic Delivery of Functional Proteins Into Plants Using an Engineered Membrane Translocation Domain

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein‐based biopesticides and biostimulants are critical for the future of sustainable agriculture, yet their utility is severely limited by inefficient delivery into plant cells. Traditional cell‐penetrating peptides enable protein uptake but lack the efficiency, systemic activity and scalability required for crop production.

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

Frontiers 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 ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Modulus of Elasticity Loss as a Rapid Indicator of Rot-fungal Attack on Untreated and Preservative-treated Wood in Laboratory Tests

BioResources, 2017
The modulus of elasticity (MOE) of wood is a sensitive indicator of rot-fungal attack. To develop an alternative method of rapid assessment of fungal decay in the laboratory, changes in static MOE of untreated and preservative-treated wood were measured ...

Factors Alleviating Cadmium Toxicity in White Rot Fungus

Journal of Bioremediation & Biodegradation, 2014
Co-contamination with heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) poses a challenge for bioremediation of polluted environments. In order to degrade PAH-metal mixtures, the biodegrading organism needs to be in a metabolically active state to degrade the PAH moiety while being able to tolerate the co-contaminant metal(s).

Characterization of Acetylxylan Esterase from White-Rot Fungus Irpex lacteus.

Journal of applied glycoscience, 2019
The carbohydrate esterase family 1 (CE1) in CAZy contains acetylxylan esterases (AXEs) and feruloyl esterases (FAEs). Here we cloned a gene coding for an AXE belonging to CE1 from Irpex lacteus (IlAXE1). IlAXE1 was heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris, and the recombinant enzyme was purified and characterized.

CRISPR/Cas‐Mediated Gene Editing in Plant Immunity and Its Potential for the Future Development of Fungal, Oomycete, and Bacterial Pathogen‐Resistant Pulse Crops

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pulses provide myriad health benefits and are advantageous in an environmental context as a result of their leguminous nature. However, phytopathogenic fungi, oomycetes and bacteria pose a substantial threat to pulse production, at times leading to crop failure.

Phosphorus availability affects the efficiency of plant–white rot fungus remediation of soil contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by altering microbial community structure and functions

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
White rot fungi and soil microbial communities at the hyphosphere influence phosphorus availability through their interactions. However, the mechanisms underlying the effects of different phosphorus forms on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during
