The paleozoic origin of enzymatic lignin decomposition reconstructed from 31 fungal genomes

Dimitrios Floudas, +70 more
- 29 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: Comparative analyses of 31 fungal genomes suggest that lignin-degrading peroxidases expanded in the lineage leading to the ancestor of the Agaricomycetes, which is reconstructed as a white rot species, and then contracted in parallel lineages leading to brown rot and mycorrhizal species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome sequencing and analysis of the biomass-degrading fungus Trichoderma reesei (syn. Hypocrea jecorina).

TL;DR: This work assembled 89 scaffolds to generate 34 Mbp of nearly contiguous T. reesei genome sequence comprising 9,129 predicted gene models, providing a roadmap for constructing enhanced T.Reesei strains for industrial applications such as biofuel production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome sequence of the lignocellulose degrading fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium strain RP78

TL;DR: The sequenced genome of Phanerochaete chrysosporium strain RP78 reveals an impressive array of genes encoding secreted oxidases, peroxidases and hydrolytic enzymes that cooperate in wood decay, and provides a framework for further development of bioprocesses for biomass utilization, organopollutant degradation and fiber bleaching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome, transcriptome, and secretome analysis of wood decay fungus Postia placenta supports unique mechanisms of lignocellulose conversion

TL;DR: Comparisons with the closely relatedwhite-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium support an evolutionary shift from white-rot to brown-rot during which the capacity for efficient depolymerization of lignin was lost.
