Project description:Peniophora incarnata T-7 is a white-rot fungus with a pronounced capacity for preferential lignin degradation. To investigate the molecular responses of this strain during lignocellulose degradation, P. incarnata T-7 was cultured on different lignocellulosic substrates, including poplar wood, Chinese fir wood, and rice straw, with PDA medium as the control. RNA-seq was performed to characterize substrate-induced gene expression profiles and to identify genes potentially involved in lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose degradation. This dataset provides transcriptomic resources for understanding the lignocellulose-degrading mechanism and substrate-adaptive responses of P. incarnata T-7.
