The brown rot fungus Wolfiporia cocos and the selective white rot fungus Perenniporia medulla-panis produce peptides and phenolate-derivative compounds as low molecular weight Fe(3+)-reductants. Phenolates were the major ...

Fungal volatile secondary metabolites play important roles in mediating antagonistic and beneficial interactions among organisms. The effects of eight strains of white-rot fungi cultured on potato waste against the mycelial ...

White-rot fungi are key regulators of the global C-cycle; they are so far unique in their ability to complete degrade all components of our principal renewable resource, lignocellulose. These filamentous wood decay fungi, ...

White rot fungi have an enzymatic system producing oxidative and hydrolytic enzymes that act on the degradation of certain components of the cell wall. They can be applied in several technological processes, such as paper ...

Pretreatment of pinus Radiata logs with the white-rot fungi Ceriporiopsis sp (9C), Pleurotus sp (9P), and Phlebia sp (24P), under field conditions was studied. The lignin content was evaluated by gravimetric techniques ...

The biodegradation of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose from oil palm empty fruit bunches by white rot fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Pleurotus ostreatus was investigated. The results showed higher mass loss and ...

The mycelial growth ability of 13 white rot fungi were separately evaluated in kraft, organosolv, and soda black liquor agar-plates. The fungus able to best grow and decolorize black liquor agar-plates was grown in organosolv ...
