Selection of white-rot fungi for biopulping☆
TLDR
Differences in weight loss as well as lignin and polysaccharide degradation were also found when wood of different coniferous and deciduous tree species was decayed by various white-rot fungi.About:

Degradation of the lignocellulose complex in wood
TL;DR: The ratio of syringyl:guaiacyl lignin of different woods, different cell types, and even the different layers within a cell wall influenced the type and extent of decay by white-rot fungi.

Fungal Biodegradation of Lignocelluloses
Annele Hatakka,Kenneth E. Hammel +1 more
TL;DR: Many fungi degrade cellulose and hemicelluloses using extracellular hydrolytic enzymes, but fungi that degrade woody biomass are the only ones to efficiently degrade polysaccharides encased in lignin.

Biopulping : an overview of developments in an environmentally safe paper-making technology
Kurt Messner,Ewald Srebotnik +1 more
TL;DR: Information obtained by immunoelectron microscopy and differential staining led to the conclusion that the biopulping effect obtained after 2 weeks of incubation cannot be explained by the direct action of enzymes on lignin or polysaccharides, and a low molecular mass agent is considered to be responsible for the biopsies.

Cell wall alterations in loblolly pine wood decayed by the white-rot fungus, Ceriporiopsis subvermispora
TL;DR: Ultrastructural, immunocytochemical and UV absorption spectroscopy techniques were used to elucidate the progressive changes that occur within woody cell walls during decay by Ceriporiopsis subvermispora.

Structural and chemical properties of grass lignocelluloses related to conversion for biofuels
TL;DR: In addition to increased availability of carbohydrates for fermentation, separation and collection of aromatics could provide value-added co-products to improve the economics of bioconversion.

Modified procedure to determine acid-insoluble lignin in wood and pulp.
TL;DR: In this paper, a modification of the standard procedure for much smaller sample amounts was developed, which is based on the procedure of Saeman and is used for lignin analysis.

Screening wood decayed by white rot fungi for preferential lignin degradation.
TL;DR: This investigation demonstrates that selective delignification among white rot fungi is more prevalent than previously realized and identifies a large number of fungi for use in studies of preferential lignin degradation.

Assessment of 30 White Rot Basidiomycetes for Selective Lignin Degradation
TL;DR: Phellinus pini-2, Pholiota mutabilis, Phlebia brevispora-l and Phanerochaete chrysosporium were the best delignifiers of both birch and pine.
