Extracellular and cellular mechanisms sustaining metal tolerance in ectomycorrhizal fungi
TL;DR: This review focuses on recent evidence that identifies potential extracellular and cellular mechanisms that may be involved in the tolerance of ectomycorrhizal fungi to excess metals in their environment.

Role of oxalic acid overexcretion in transformations of toxic metal minerals by Beauveria caledonica.
Marina Fomina,Stephen Hillier,John M. Charnock,K. Melville,Ian J. Alexander,Geoffrey M. Gadd +5 more
TL;DR: The fungus Beauveria caledonica was highly tolerant to toxic metals and solubilized cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc minerals, converting them into oxalates, suggesting that a ligand-promoted mechanism was the main mechanism of mineral dissolution.

Zinc Phosphate and Pyromorphite Solubilization by Soil Plant-Symbiotic Fungi
TL;DR: In this paper, acidolysis, complexolysis and metal accumulation were involved in solubilization of zinc phosphate and pyromorphite by a selection of soil fungi representing ericoid and ectomycorrhizal plant symbionts and an endophytic/entomopathogenic fungus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indoor wood-decay basidiomycetes: damage, causal fungi, physiology, identification and characterization, prevention and control
TL;DR: This review covers the approximately 80 basidiomycetes that commonly occur in buildings and places emphasis on Serpula lacrymans, which is the most common indoor basidiaomycete in central Europe.

Interactions of fungip with toxic metals
TL;DR: The use of fungal biomass for the detoxification of metal/radionuclide-containing industrial effluents is of biotechnological potential (Gadd, 1990, 1992a) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A proposed role of oxalic acid in wood decay systems of wood-rotting basidiomycetes
TL;DR: Oxalate was shown to regulate the mineralization of lignin in the in vivo system of Phanerochaete chrysosporium and may play a key role in production of oxalic acid by white-rot and brown-rot basidiomycetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of copper oxalate by some copper tolerant fungi
Richard J. Murphy,J.F. Levy +1 more
TL;DR: Aspergillus niger, Penicillium spinulosum, Verticillio psalliotae and Porta placenta cause the formation of copper oxalate crystals when grown in a copper containing medium, and results are discussed in relation to the copper tolerance mechanisms of those fungi.

Correlation between oxalic acid production and copper tolerance in Wolfiporia cocos
TL;DR: In this article, 19 isolates of the brown-rot fungus Wolfiporia cocos were evaluated for oxalic acid production and weight loss on wood treated with 1.2% copper citrate.

CCA removal from treated wood using a dual remediation process
TL;DR: In this article, CCA-treated wood wafers were treated with a two-step remediation process to remove copper, chromium and arsenic, which resulted in a total reduction of 78% copper, 97% chromium, and 93% arsenic.
