Nitrogen in sufficient quantities is strictly necessary for all living organisms. In this study, the
ability of some xylotrophic basidiomycetes to grow extremely long on a solid growth medium …

Saprotrophic basidiomycetes decompose wood in aerobic environments and can cause
economic damage. The availability of nitrogen is determining for decomposition, and …

Lignin-degrading basidiomycetes are of prime importance in the decay of wood and other
lignocellulosic materials. The ligninolytic system of Phanerochaete chrysosporium Burds. is …

The contribution of fungi to carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling is related to their growth
efficiency (amount of biomass produced per unit of substrate utilized). The concentration and …

The wood-decomposing fungal species Antrodia macra, A. pulvinascens, Ceriporiopsis
aneirina, C. resinascens and Dichomitus albidofuscus were determined for production of …

The wood degrading ability of basidiomycetes, 41 wood decomposers, 22 litter
decomposers, and 5 mycorrhizal symbionts, was measured in aseptic culture on an agar …

Transfer of 15 N between interacting mycelia of a wood-decomposing fungus (Hypholoma
fasciculare) and an ectomycorrhizal fungus (Tomentellopsis submollis) was studied in a …

The aim of this research is to study of eco-physiological adaptations of xylotrophic fungi
(Basidiomycota, Agaricomycetes) to hypoxia, anoxia and hypercapnia as the main …

Dead wood litter input to mature forest ecosystems represents 30–40% of the total biomass,
containing about 1–4 and 0.1–0.8 kg/(ha∙ year), of N and P, respectively. However, since …

Fungi are an integral part of the nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in trophic networks, as
they participate in biomass decomposition and facilitate plant nutrition through root …
