Biological activity of humic acid, hymatomelanic acid, lignofulvic acid, and fulvic acids isolated from peat, from spruce wood decomposed by the fungusFomes marginatus (Fr.) Gillet, and from spruce wood decomposed by the fungusPoria cinerascens Bres. was tested on cress seedlings (Lepidium sativum L.). The results evaluated by the analysis of variance indicate that humus acids show a high degree of affinity in their biological activity which is a condition for the applicability of the decomposition of wood by fungi as a model of the humus formation. Humic and hymatomelanic acids, products of an advanced step of humification, have a predominantly stimulatory effect especially on the hypocotyl. Lignofulvic acids and fulvic acids exert a rather inhibitory effect with the root being more affected. 相似文献

Wood degradation by two basidiomycetes, Fomitopsis pinicola and Laetiporus sulphureus was studied in one conifer and four broadleaved trees: Picea abies (Norway spruce), Acer pseudoplatanus (sycamore), Betula pendula (birch), Quercus robur (common oak) and Robinia pseudoacacia (robinia). Observations of birefringence under polarized light showed that in all hosts both brown rot fungi affected cells
of the early wood before those of the late wood. Degradation of cellulose, as shown by the loss of birefringence, was apparent
after 6 weeks in the cell wall of fibres and fibre tracheids, but even after 12 weeks, axial parenchyma showed no signs of
degradation. The results indicate that both brown rot fungi cause higher weight losses in hosts (P. abies and B. pendula) with a small amount of parenchyma cells, whereas the lowest weight losses are associated with wood containing a high amount
of parenchyma cells (Q. robur and R. pseudoacacia). Resistance of parenchyma cells to degradation by brown rot fungi appears to be related to the cell wall morphology of parenchyma
cells and may also reflect a low co-evolutionary adaptation of brown rot fungi to the xylem of broadleaved trees. 相似文献

The degradation of wood by brown rot fungi has been studied intensely for many years in order to facilitate the preservation of in-service wood. In this work we used X-ray diffraction to examine changes in wood cellulose crystallinity caused by the brown rot fungi Gloeophyllum trabeum, Coniophora puteana, and two isolates of Serpula lacrymans. All fungi increased apparent percent crystallinity early in the decay process while decreasing total amounts of both crystalline and amorphous material. Data also showed an apparent decrease of approximately 0.05 Å in the average spacing of the crystal planes in all degraded samples after roughly 20% weight loss, as well as a decrease in the average observed relative peak width at 2θ = 22.2°. These results may indicate a disruption of the outer most semi-crystalline cellulose chains comprising the wood microfibril. X-ray diffraction analysis of wood subjected to biological attack by fungi may provide insight into degradative processes and wood cellulose structure. 相似文献

Iron, hydrogen peroxide, biochelators and oxalate are believed to play important roles in cellulose degradation by brown-rot fungi. The effect of these compounds in an 'enhanced' Fenton system on alpha-cellulose degradation was investigated specifically in regard to molecular weight distribution and cellulose-iron affinity. This study shows that the degradative ability of an ultrafiltered low molecular weight preparation of chelating compounds isolated from the brown-rot fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum (termed 'Gt chelator') increased with increasing Gt chelator concentration when the FeIII to Gt chelator ratio was greater than about 30:1. When this ratio was less than 30:1, increasing Gt chelator concentration did not accelerate cellulose degradation. In excess hydrogen peroxide, cellulose degradation increased and then decreased with increasing iron concentration when FeIII was present in excess of the Gt chelator. The critical ratio of FeIII to Gt chelator varied depending on the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the system. Increasing iron concentration above a critical iron:chelator ratio inhibited cellulose degradation. The optimum pH for cellulose degradation mediated by Gt chelator was around 4.0. A comparison of the effects of 2,3-DHBA (a chelator that reduces iron similarly to Gt chelator) and Gt chelator with respect to cellulose degradation demonstrated the same pattern of cellulose degradation. Cellulose-iron affinity studies were conducted at three pH levels (3.6, 3.8, 4.1), and the binding constants for cellulose-FeIII, cellulose-FeII and cellulose-FeIII in the presence of Gt chelator were calculated. The binding constants for cellulose-FeIII at all three pH levels were much higher than those for cellulose-FeII, and the binding constants for cellulose-FeIII in the presence of Gt chelator were very close to those for cellulose-FeII. This is probably the result of FeIII reduction to FeII by Gt chelator and suggests that chelators from the fungus may be able to sequester iron from cellulose and reduce it in near proximity to the cellulose and thereby better promote depolymerization. The free radical generating system described has potential for use in a variety of industrial processing and pollution control applications. 相似文献

Wood-inhabiting Basidiomycetes have been screened for various applications in the pulp and paper industry and it is evident that different fungi need to be used to suit the specific requirements of each application. This study assessed the suitability of 278 strains of South African wood-decay fungi for the pre-treatment of softwood chips for kraft pulping. The influence of these fungi on kappa number, yield and strength properties of pulp was evaluated. A number of these strains were more efficient in reducing kappa number than the frequently used strains of Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora. Six strains of Stereum hirsutum and a strain of an unidentified species were able to reduce the kappa number significantly without a significant influence on the pulp yield. Treatment of wood with two strains of S. hirsutum, one strain of Peniophora sp. and a strain of an unidentified species resulted in paper with improved strength properties. 相似文献

Wood-inhabiting fungi include many molds, wood-staining fungi, and decay fungi. Most of these fungal species can result in economic losses to wood users. Studies on molds, staining fungi, and decay fungi are necessary to be able to control their growth on wood and wood products. In this study, wood-inhabiting fungi were isolated from logs of 3 major Canadian hardwood species: sugar maple, white birch, and yellow birch. Two media were used for isolation. From these 3 wood species, a total of 1198 fungal cultures were obtained from summer- and winter-harvested logs in dry storage and under water sprinkling. The results showed that most fungal species were not host specific and affected all of the wood species tested. Frequently isolated molds were Alternaria alternata, Trichoderma species, and Mucor/Rhizopus (Zygomycota) species, frequently isolated staining fungi were Ophiostoma piceae and Ophiostoma piliferum, a frequently isolated bark saprophyte was Nectria cinnabarina, and frequently isolated decay fungi were taxa of the phylum Basidiomycota. More fungal species were isolated from summer-harvested logs than from winter-harvested logs. Fewer fungal cultures, especially decay fungi, were isolated from logs in early storage than from logs in late storage. 相似文献

Summary The ability of 45 fungal strains to degrade wheat straw and beech wood was studied. Degradation patterns were defined in terms of chemical evolution of substrates and changes in lignin and polysaccharides. Trametes versicolor produced an important degradation of lignin and increased substrate digestibility, but it caused high weight losses and gave rise to similar decay patterns on both substrates. A preferential degradation of lignin was produced during straw transformation by Pleurotus eryngii. The increase of soluble lignin and decreases of lignin content and H/C ratio defined the degradation tendency after principal component analysis. The cation exchange capacity and water and alkali solubility presented the highest loading factors for the characterization of fungal transformation of beech wood.

Despite advances in phylogenetic research and the number of ecological studies focusing on wood-inhabiting fungi, these species still represent a taxonomically poorly known group of organisms. In this study, our overall aim was to detect and characterize the understudied wood-inhabiting fungal groups in the beech forests of Navarre (northern Spain). We present a list of 326 wood-inhabiting fungal species, out of which 36 % are first regional records. Comparing the already recorded fungal species in this territory and the list of firstly recorded species, we found that field-mycologists tend to focus on certain fungal groups, and in general rare species are less frequently encountered. Particularly, species with corticioid fruit body type have been especially overlooked in this territory. We attribute the high proportion of new regional records to the use of a systematic sampling design. 相似文献

We focused in selecting four fungi, naturally living in Eucalyptus sp. fields, for application in accelerating stump decay. The wood-rot fungi Pycnoporus sanguineus (Ps), Lentinus bertieri (Lb) and Xylaria sp. (Xa) were isolated from Eucalyptus sp. field and the fungus Lentinula edodes (Led) was obtained from a commercial strain. All fungi were studied according to their capacity to degrade eucalyptus urograndis wood. In order to evaluate mass losses of seven years old eucalyptus urograndis' wood test blocks from heartwood were prepared added to glass flasks with red clay soil. The humidity of the soil was adjusted with 50 and 100% of its water retention capacity. Mass loss evaluations occurred at 30 until 120 days after eucalyptus wood degradation. Chemical analysis and soil pH were measured only in the last evaluation. Mycelial growth assays with potato-dextrose-agar, malt-agar and sawdust-dextrose-agar at three temperatures was carried out in order to get information about the best conditions of fungi growth. On the 120th day, Ps and Lb showed good capacity of wood degradation by leading to a high mass loss in soil with highest humidity. These fungi were the best consumers of lignin, hemicellulose, cellulose and extractives, caused acidification in the soil. Ps and Lb had faster mycelial growth in sawdust-dextrose-agar, especially in high temperature, comparing to Xa and Led. Xa and Led are not good eucalyptus urograndis heartwood degraders, because they consume preferentially hemicellulose. 相似文献

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 Fe3+-reductants. Phenolates were the major compounds with Fe3+-reducing activity in both fungi and displayed Fe3+-reducing activity at pH 2.0 and 4.5 in the absence and presence of oxalic acid. The chemical structures of these compounds
were identified. Together with Fe3+ and H2O2 (mediated Fenton reaction) they produced oxygen radicals that oxidized lignocellulosic polysaccharides and lignin extensively
in vitro under conditions similar to those found in vivo. These results indicate that, in addition to the extensively studied
Gloeophyllum trabeum—a model brown rot fungus—other brown rot fungi as well as selective white rot fungi, possess the means to promote Fenton
chemistry to degrade cellulose and hemicellulose, and to modify lignin. Moreover, new information is provided, particularly
regarding how lignin is attacked, and either repolymerized or solubilized depending on the type of fungal attack, and suggests
a new pathway for selective white rot degradation of wood. The importance of Fenton reactions mediated by phenolates operating
separately or synergistically with carbohydrate-degrading enzymes in brown rot fungi, and lignin-modifying enzymes in white
rot fungi is discussed. This research improves our understanding of natural processes in carbon cycling in the environment,
which may enable the exploration of novel methods for bioconversion of lignocellulose in the production of biofuels or polymers,
in addition to the development of new and better ways to protect wood from degradation by microorganisms. 相似文献

White rot fungi are good lignin degraders and have the potential to be used in industry. In the present work, Phellinus sp., Daedalea sp., Trametes versicolor and Pycnoporus coccineus were selected due to their relatively high ligninolytic enzyme activity, and grown on Acacia mangium wood chips under solid state fermentation. Results obtained showed that manganese peroxidase produced is far more compared
to lignin peroxidase, suggesting that MnP might be the predominating enzymes causing lignin degradation in Acacia mangium wood chips. Cellulase enzyme assays showed that no significant cellulase activity was detected in the enzyme preparation
of T. versicolor and Phellinus sp. This low cellulolytic activity further suggests that these two white rot strains are of more interest in lignin degradation.
The results on lignin losses showed 20–30% of lignin breakdown at 60 days of biodegradation. The highest lignin loss was found
in Acacia mangium biotreated with T. versicolor after 60 days and recorded 26.9%, corresponding to the percentage of their wood weight loss recorded followed by P. coccineus. In general, lignin degradation was only significant from 20 days onwards. The overall percentage of lignin weight loss was
within the range of 1.02–26.90% over the biodegradation periods. Microscopic observations conducted using scanning electron
microscope showed that T. versicolor, P. coccineus, Daedalea sp. and Phellinus sp. had caused lignin degradation in Acacia mangium wood chips. 相似文献

Summary Cyanide hydratase, which converts cyanide to formamide, was induced in mycelia of Stemphylium loti by growth in the presence of low concentrations of cyanide. Mycelia were immobilised by several methods. The most useful system was found to be treatment with flocculating agents. This technique is applicable to a wide range of easily isolated fungi that contain cyanide hydratase. 相似文献

Abstract: In recent years a considerable amount of data have accumulated concerning the principal enzymes involved in wood decay by white-rot fungi and about their biochemical mechanism of action. Various strains of fungi and their mutants having different enzyme production were selected and the patterns of degradation resulting from their action on wood were examined by transmission electron microscopy. A correlation between the nature of the enzymes and the micromorphology of degradation was tentatively established based on a comparison between the respective patterns created by a wild-type strain and metabolic mutants in which a known activity was either enhanced or repressed. Results are illustrated with Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Dichomitus squalens and Phlebia radiata . In particular, the strong ability of manganese peroxidase and laccase to perform defibrillation of cellulose microfibrils is evidenced. 相似文献
