TLDR
A method was developed to suspend fungal mycelium in the culture vessel of growing cultures using an Ultra-Turrax homogenizer and inoculations made with such hyphal suspensions yielded uniform and fast growth.About:

Decomposition of 14C-labelled lignin, holocellulose and lignocellulose by mycorrhizal fungi
TL;DR: The results of the experiments reveal that these stains of mycorrhizal fungi are well able to utilize the major components of plant material and thus can contribute to litter decomposition in the forest floor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of phenolic compounds and tannin on growth and laccase activity of Fomes annosus
TL;DR: The growth of Fomes annosus in liquid medium was inhibited by phenols which were oxidized by the fungus and/or induced high laccase acitivity.

Function of laccase in the white-rot fungus Fomes annosus.
Annegret Haars,Aloys Hüttermann +1 more
TL;DR: Thioglycolic acid, a Cu-chelating agent, totally inhibited extracellular laccase activity without affecting growth and morphology of Fomes annosus and prevented the oxidation of phenols and simultaneously permitted normal growth.

Pleurotus mushrooms. Part III. Biotransformations of natural lignocellulosic wastes: commercial applications and implications.
S. Rajarathnam,Zakia Bano +1 more
TL;DR: The ability of Pleurotus to effect degradative changes is discussed under both sterile (monoculture) and nonsterile culturing conditions, and the enzymatic aspects affecting these various chemical changes in the lignino-cellulosic substrates are brought out.
Journal ArticleDOI
The decolorization of the polymeric dye Poly-Blue (polyvinalamine sulfonate-anthroquinone) by lignin degrading fungi
TL;DR: This work investigated the decolorization of the polymeric dye Poly-B411 by several fungi and found that only fungi with known lignin degrading ability were able to decolorize the dye.

Induction of aryl-beta-glucosidase in Fomes annosus by cellobiose.
TL;DR: Of the four different bands of aryl-β-glucosidase activity obtained by isoelectric focusing, only one increases in its relative activity after the transfer from glucose-media to cellobiose-media.

Observations on Penicillium chrysogenum in submerged culture. 1. Mycelial growth and autolysis.
TL;DR: A more detailed study of the conditions required for the organization of the mycelium in one or the other type of growth is undertaken, and some morphological observations on the course of autolysis in the two growth types were made.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolism of L-threonine and its relationship to sclerotium formation in Sclerotium rolfsii.
TL;DR: It is suggested that hyphal morphogenesis and formation of sclerotia in S. rolfsii require an increased supply of carbohydrate intermediates and energy and that these are mainly supplied by the glyoxylate pathway.
