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 …

White‐rot fungi, such as Dichomitus squalens, degrade all wood components and inhabit
mixed‐wood forests containing both soft‐and hardwood species. In this study, we evaluated …

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 …

White-rot (WR) fungi are pivotal decomposers of dead organic matter in forest ecosystems
and typically use a large array of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes to deconstruct …

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

In the present research, Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Irpex Lacteus simultaneously
degraded lignin and cellulose in ramie stalks, whereas Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus …

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 …

Abstract Background The white-rot Agaricomycetes species Phlebia radiata is an efficient
wood-decaying fungus degrading all wood components, including cellulose, hemicellulose …

The basidiomycete white-rot fungus Obba rivulosa, a close relative of Gelatoporia
(Ceriporiopsis) subvermispora, is an efficient degrader of softwood. The dikaryotic O …

Wood decomposition is a sophisticated process where various biocatalysts act
simultaneously and synergistically on biopolymers to efficiently break down plant cell walls …
