Temporal transcriptome analysis of the white-rot fungus Obba rivulosa shows expression of a constitutive set of plant cell wall degradation targeted genes during growth on solid spruce wood
Unique ability of basidiomycete white rot fungi to degrade all components of plant cell walls makes them indispensable organisms in global carbon cycle. In this study, we analyzed proteomes of two closely related white rot fungi, Obba rivulosa and Gelatoporia subvermispora, while growing on solid sp...
The basidiomycete white-rot fungus Obba rivulosa, a close relative of Gelatoporia (Ceriporiopsis) subvermispora, is an efficient degrader of softwood. The dikaryotic O. rivulosa strain T241i (FBCC949) has been shown to selectively remove lignin from spruce wood prior to depolymerization of plant cel...
