White rot fungi in bioremediation of dyes

open access: yes, 2006
The use of white rot fungi (WRF) is a promising alternative to treat dyes containing wastewaters. Six WRF strains were selected with regards to their ability of decolourisation and detoxification of azoic and anthraquinonic dyes: Coriolopsis polyzona (CP36), Perenniporia ochroleuca (PO33), Pycnoporus sanguineus (PS7), Perenniporia tephropora (PT32 ...

Exploring the Role of Intercropping and Mulching on Modulating Lettuce Biomass and Rhizosphere Microbiome

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Modern agriculture faces the dual challenge of maintaining high yields while minimising environmental impact, all under increasingly difficult climatic conditions. Practices such as intercropping and mulching have demonstrated potential to improve resource use efficiency, but their effects on crop performance and soil microbial communities ...

Degradation of Dyes by Fungi: A Bibliometric Study and Bibliographic Review

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT The degradation of dyes from textile effluents is considered a major challenge due to their high potential for environmental contamination and health risks due to their toxicity. In this sense, the use of fungi for the degradation of these compounds is reported in the literature as an ecological alternative with great potential.

Adaptive Significance of Nickel Hyperaccumulation by Plants

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
Metal hyperaccumulation may enhance plant fitness through multiple, non‐exclusive mechanisms, including elemental defense against herbivores and pathogens, altered pollinator interactions, and increased reproductive performance in metal‐rich soils. Metals may also affect plant–plant interactions via elemental allelopathy and improve stress tolerance ...

Characterization of lignin-modifying enzymes of the selective white-rot fungus Physisporinus rivulosus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
White-rot fungi are wood degrading organisms that are able to decompose all wood polymers; lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. Especially the selective white-rot fungi that decompose preferentially wood lignin are promising for biopulping applications ...

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

Basal lignified star-shaped cavity in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.): early development in nursery and consequences for BSR control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The existence of a high lignified star-shaped cavity at the base of the bole, or more precisely at the root - bole interface, has been clearly identified for the first time.

Plant and Soil Function Increase With Larger and Older Coarse Woody Debris

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Coarse woody debris is increasingly being used in ecological restoration. We aimed to assess the global impacts of woody debris on ecosystem properties and functions. Location Global. Major Taxa Studied Soil biota, plants, soil function. Methods We conducted a quantitative global meta‐analysis of 66 studies (5234 observations) to assess ...

INFLUENCE OF BIOPRETREATMENT ON THE CHARACTER OF CORN STOVER LIGNIN AS SHOWN BY THERMOGRAVIMETRIC AND CHEMICAL STRUCTURAL ANALYSES

open access: yesBioResources, 2010
The effect of corn stover lignin structure alteration caused by white-rot fungi pretreatment on the pyrolysis kinetics was studied by FTIR and TG/DTA. Results showed that biopretreatment had a remarkable effect on lignin pyrolysis.
