Effect of biodelignification of rice straw on humification and humus quality by Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Streptomyces badius

The effect of biodelignification of rice straw by two different ligninolytic organisms, Phanerochaete chrysosporium (white-rot fungus) and Streptomyces badius (actinomycetes), on humus quality was investigated during a 56-day incubation at 30 °C. Lignin degradation, the release of humic extract (HE), humic acid (HA) and fulvic acid (FA), E4/E6 ratio of HA, and humification index (HI, HA/FA) were measured during the incubation. Lignin was degraded by both organisms, but to different extents. Lignin was degraded to 41% and 31% by P. chrysosporium and S. badius, respectively. HE released by P. chrysosporium and S. badius were, respectively, 2.10 and 2.13 times larger than that in the control at the maximum values. A significant correlation between lignin degradation and humus-related parameters involving HA fraction showed that both organisms are converting lignin to humic substances.     

Decolourisation of reactive textile dyes Drimarene Blue X3LR and Remazol Brilliant Blue R by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Funalia trogii</Emphasis> ATCC 200800

Decolourisation of reactive dyes Drimarene Blue X3LR and Remazol Brilliant Blue R by white rot fungi Funalia trogii was studied under static conditions. The effect of various conditions such as mycelial age, initial dye and glucose concentrations on decolourisation were also investigated. Decolourisation activity of F. trogii was compared with Phanerochaete chrysosporium known as test microorganism. It was found that 7-day-old cultures were more effective than 5-day-old cultures of F. trogii for decolourisation of these dyes. Decolourisations by F. trogii of both dyes were increased with glucose concentration decreasing. In contrast, decolourisations by P. chrysosporium were decreased. F. trogii decolourised 92–98% of both dyes within 4–10 h. However, P. chrysosporium partially decolourised (11–20%) these dyes during 10days incubation period under the same conditions.     

Transformation by complementation of a uracil auxotroph of the hyper lignin-degrading basidiomycete Phanerochaete sordida YK-624

Phanerochaete sordida YK-624 is a hyper lignin-degrading basidiomycete possessing greater ligninolytic selectivity than either P. chrysosporium or Trametes versicolor. To construct a gene transformation system for P. sordida YK-624, uracil auxotrophic mutants were generated using a combination of ultraviolet (UV) radiation and 5-fluoroorotate resistance as a selection scheme. An uracil auxotrophic strain (UV-64) was transformed into a uracil prototroph using the marker plasmid pPsURA5 containing the orotate phosphoribosyltransferase gene from P. sordida YK-624. This system generated approximately 50 stable transformants using 2 × 10⁷ protoplasts. Southern blot analysis demonstrated that the transformed pPsURA5 was ectopically integrated into the chromosomal DNA of all transformants. The enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene was also introduced into UV-64. The transformed EGFP was expressed in the co-transformants driven by P. sordida glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene promoter and terminator regions.     

Morphological and molecular characterization of the Armillaria cepistipes – A. gallica complex in the Czech Republic and Slovakia

Armillaria cepistipes and A. gallica (Basidiomycota, Physalacriaceae) are morphologically similar species, and they are often nearly indistinguishable using DNA-based methods targeting the ITS region of ribosomal DNA. The aim of this study was to examine morphological and ecological features of A. cepistipes and A. gallica, and to test other DNA-based methods to distinguish the two species. Our results revealed discriminative macro- and micromorphological features between these two species, especially the presence of a distinct central pileus ocella, the shape of the annulus, the character of the velar stipe remnants and the length of the terminal cells of the pileus scales. Ecologically, A. gallica generally prefers warmer areas in lowlands (oak and alluvial forests), while A. cepistipes is more common in hilly and lower montane beech forests in Central Europe. Nevertheless, despite differences in ecological preferences, certain locations between 300 and 500 m a.s.l. are known to sympatrically support both species. The sequences of the translation elongation factor 1-alpha showed high interspecific variability, and this gene is a more appropriate candidate for distinguishing A. gallica from A. cepistipes.     

Use of Phanerochaete chrysosporium biomass for the removal of textile dyes from a synthetic effluent

Summary The use of Phanerochaete chrysosporium biomass for the removal of Reactofix Golden Yellow from aqueous solution and eight textile dyes (four azo and four anthraquinone) from a synthetic effluent (0.6 g/l) at different pH, temperature and biomass concentrations was studied. Adsorption was maximum at pH 2.0 and 40 °C using 2.45 g mycelial biomass. The rate constant of adsorption was 1.95×10⁻¹/min for Reactofix Golden Yellow and 1.64×10⁻¹/min for synthetic effluent. In both cases, the equilibrium data fitted well in the Langmuir but not the Freundlich model of adsorption, and the adsorption was biphasic. Adsorption decreased the COD of Reactofix Golden Yellow and synthetic effluent by 54 and 57%, respectively. Desorption (80–84%) of dyes from P. chrysosporium mycelial surface occurred as the pH increased from 2 to 10.     

Molecular cloning of the o2-m5 allele of Zea mays using transposon marking

Summary The deposition of zein protein in maize endosperm is under the control of several regulatory loci. The isolation of DNA sequences corresponding to Opaque-2 (O2), one of such loci, is described in this paper. The mutable allele, o2-m5 was first induced moving the Ac transposable element present at the wx-m7 allele to the O2 locus. Genetic data suggest that a functional Ac element is responsible for the observed somatic mutability of o2-m5. The isolation of genomic clones containing flanking sequences corresponding to the O2 gene was possible by screening an o2-m5 genomic libary with a probe corresponding to internal Ac sequences usually absent in the defective element Ds. Out of 27 clones isolated with homology to the central part of Ac element, only clones 6IP and 21IP generated a 2.5 kb internal fragment size of an active Ac element when digested with PvuII restriction enzyme. A sequence representing a XhoI fragment of 0.9 kb lying, in the 6IP clone, adjacent to the Ac elements, was subcloned and utilized to prove that it corresponded to a part of the O2 gene. To obtain this information we made use of: (1) DNAs from several reversions originating from the unstable (o2mk-(r) allele, which, when digested with SstI, showed a correct 3.4 kb fragment typical of non-inserted alleles of the O2 locus; and (2) recessive alleles of the O2 locus which were devoid of a 2.0 kb mRNA, present on the contrary in the wild type and in other zein regulating mutants different from O2.This paper is dedicated to the memory of R. Marotta, who actively participated in the realization of this work     

Use of lignin-degrading fungi in the disposal of pentachlorophenol-treated wood

Summary The lignin-degrading fungiPhanerochaete chrysosporium, P. sordida, Trametes hirsuta, andCeriporiopsis subvermispora were evaluated for their ability to decrease the concentration of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and to cause dry weight loss in PCP-treated wood. Hardwood and softwood materials from PCP-treated ammunition boxes that were chipped to pass a 3.8-cm screen were used. All four fungi caused significant weight losses and decreases in the PCP concentration. The largest PCP decrease (84% in 4 weeks) was caused byT. hirsuta, and the smallest decrease was caused byC. subvermispora (37% in 4 weeks). After 4 weeks, the fate of spiked¹⁴C[PCP] in softwood chips inoculated withT. hirsuta was as follows: 27% was mineralized, 42.5% was non-extractable and bound to the chips, 23.5% was associated with fungal hyphae, and 6% was organic-extractable. Decreases of PCP byP. chrysosporium andP. sordida averaged 59% and 57%, respectively. PCP decreases caused byPhanerochaete spp. were not significantly affected by wood type or sterilization and were primarily due to methylation of PCP that resulted in accumulation of pentachloroanisole. Softwood weight losses caused byT. hirsuta, P. chrysosporium andC. subvermispora were respectively, 24, 6.5, and 17%, after 4 weeks. These weight losses are comparable to reported weight losses by these organisms in non-treated softwood. Nutrient supplementation significantly increased weight loss but not percentage decrease of PCP. The results of this research demonstrate the potential for using lignin-degrading fungi to destroy PCP-treated wood.

Protoplast Fusion between Geotrichum candidium and Phanerochaete chrysosporium to Produce Fusants for Corn Stover Fermentation

Lignin impedes the digestion of corn stover when used as an animal feed. Phanerochaete chrysosporium is an efficient lignindegrader. Geotrichum candidum can be used to produce single-cell protein. In this study, protoplasts of the two fungi were prepared and fused. After screening, one of the fusants, Fusant R1, was selected for corn stover fermentation. It decreased lignin from 109 to 54 g/kg and increased protein from 48 to 67 g/kg in corn stover. Comparison with their parental strains indicated that the fusant obtained the lignin-degrading ability from P. chrysosporium and the protein-accumulating ability from G. candidium.
