Next-generation sequencing (NGS) of the Flammulina elastica (wood-rotting basidiomycete)
genome was performed to identify carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes). The resulting …

Whole-genome sequencing of Flammulina ononidis, a wood-rotting basidiomycete, was
performed to identify genes associated with carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes). A …

We have conducted a genome-level comparative study of basidiomycetes wood-rotting fungi
(white, brown and soft rot) to understand the total plant biomass (lignin, cellulose …

Members of the genus Aspergillus are extensively studied ascomycetes because of their
ability to synthesize high value-added compounds and enzymes of industrial interest …

Background Genome and transcriptome sequencing has greatly facilitated the
understanding of biomass-degrading mechanisms in a number of fungal species. The …

Fungal genome sequencing data represent an enormous pool of information for enzyme
discovery. Here, we report a new approach to identify and quantitatively compare biomass …

Enzymes active on components of lignocellulosic biomass are used for industrial
applications ranging from food processing to biofuels production. These include a diverse …

Background The white rot fungus Phlebia radiata, a type species of the genus Phlebia, is an
efficient decomposer of plant cell wall polysaccharides, modifier of softwood and hardwood …

Specific enzymes from plant-pathogenic microbes demonstrate high effectiveness for natural
lignocellulosic biomass degradation and utilization. The secreted lignocellulolytic enzymes …

Background Saprophytic filamentous fungi are ubiquitous micro-organisms that play an
essential role in photosynthetic carbon recycling. The wood-decayer Pycnoporus …
