The extent of carbon catabolite repression (CCR) at a global level is unknown in wood-
rotting fungi, which are critical to the carbon cycle and are a source of biotechnological …

Fungi can decompose plant biomass into small oligo-and monosaccharides to be used as
carbon sources. Some of these small molecules may induce metabolic pathways and the …

Wood-degrading white-rot fungi can efficiently degrade all plant biomass components, but
the molecular mechanisms behind the degradation of plant polysaccharides remain poorly …

Brown rot fungi dominate the carbon degradation of northern terrestrial conifers. These fungi
adapted unique genetic inventories to degrade lignocellulose and to rapidly release a large …

The ability to obtain carbon and energy is a major requirement to exist in any environment.
For several ascomycete fungi,(post‐) genomic analyses have shown that species that …

Brown rot fungi are wood-degrading fungi that employ both oxidative and hydrolytic
mechanisms to degrade wood. Hydroxyl radicals that facilitate the oxidative component are …

Anaerobic fungi are among the most active plant‐degrading microbes in nature. Increased
insight into the mechanisms and environmental cues that regulate fungal hydrolysis would …

Background White-rot basidiomycete fungi are potent degraders of plant biomass, with the
ability to mineralize all lignocellulose components. Recent comparative genomics studies …

Brown rot fungi are primary decomposers of wood and litter in northern forests. Relative to
other microbes, these fungi have evolved distinct mechanisms that rapidly depolymerize and …

Fungi dominate the recycling of carbon sequestered in woody biomass. This process of
organic turnover was first evolved among “white rot” fungi that degrade lignin to access …
