Journal ArticleDOI

Biotechnological applications and potential of wood-degrading mushrooms of the genus Pleurotus.

TL;DR: This Mini-Review describes the properties of Pleurotus spp in relation to their biotechnological applications and potential and the use of their ligninolytic enzymes for the biodegradation of organopollutants, xenobiotics and industrial contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of different carbon and nitrogen sources on laccase and peroxidases production by selected Pleurotus species

TL;DR: Pleurotus eryngii, P. ostreatus and P. pulmonarius produced laccase (Lac) both under conditions of submerged fermentation (SF) and solid-state fermentation (SSF) with all of the investigated carbon and nitrogen sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening of laccase, manganese peroxidase, and versatile peroxidase activities of the genus Pleurotus in media with some raw plant materials as carbon sources

TL;DR: The obtained results showed that strains of different origins have different efficiently lignin degradation systems and that conditions of SSF are more favorable for ligninolytic activity than those in SF owing to their similarity to natural conditions on wood substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of copper and manganese ions on activities of laccase and peroxidases in three Pleurotus species grown on agricultural wastes.

TL;DR: Copper (Cu2+) and manganese (Mn2+) ions influenced laccase (Lac) and peroxidase production in Pleurotus eryngii, PleuroTus ostreatus, and Pleuros pulmonarius.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mn2+ alters peroxidase profiles and lignin degradation by the white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus under different nutritional and growth conditions.

TL;DR: It is concluded that Mn2+ plays a key role in lignin degradation under different nutritional and growth conditions, since it is required for the production of MnP in P. ostreatus.
