The common edible mushroom Agaricus bisporus is a basidiomycete that thrives on decaying plant material in the forests and grasslands of North America and Europe. It is adapted to forest litter and contributes to global carbon recycling, degrading cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin in plant biomass...
ORGANISM(S): Agaricus bisporus 

The increasing application of biodegradable mulch films in agriculture has raised concerns regarding the potential persistence of biodegradable microplastics (BMPs) in soil and their subsequent ecological impacts. Although these materials are designed to mineralize, their actual rates of breakdow...

Hemicellulose, the second most abundant plant biomass fraction after cellulose, is widely viewed as a potential feedstock for the production of liquid fuels and other value-added materials. Degradation of hemicellulose by filamentous fungi requires production of many different enzymes, which are ind...

The common edible mushroom Agaricus bisporus is a basidiomycete that thrives on decaying plant material in the forests and grasslands of North America and Europe. It is adapted to forest litter and contributes to global carbon recycling, depolymerizing cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin in plant bi...

Background:

Lignocellulose represents a primary input of organic carbon (C) into soils, yet the identity of specific microorganisms and genes which drive lignocellulose turnover in soils remain poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we used a 10-year grassland plant-exclusion exp...

Phylogenetic, microbiological and comparative genomic analysis was used to examine the diversity among members of the genus Caldicellulosiruptor with an eye towards the capacity of these extremely thermophilic bacteria for degrading the complex carbohydrate content of plant biomass. Seven species fr...
ORGANISM(S): Caldicellulosiruptor lactoaceticus 
The influence of selected pentose catabolic pathway (PCP) deletion strains on growth of plant biomass and re-routing of sugar catabolism was addressed to gain a better understanding of the flexibility of the fungus Aspergillus niger in using plant biomass-derived monomers. The transcriptome, metabol...

Macrotermitine termites have domesticated fungi in the genus Termitomycesas their primary food source using predigested plant biomass. To access the full nutritional value of lignin-enriched plant biomass, the termite-fungus symbiosis requires the depolymerization of this complex phenolic polymer. W...

Fungi produce a wide range of enzymes that allow them to grow on diverse plant biomass. Wheat bran is a low-cost substrate with high potential for biotechnological applications. It mainly contains cellulose and (arabino)xylan, with starch, proteins, lipids and lignin as minor components. In this stu...
