Improved isolation of nucleic acids from basidiomycete fungi.
Although current interest in basidiomycete fungi is focused mainly on taxonomy and exploitation of selected species in environmental biotechnology, isolation and characterization of their nucleic acids is becoming still more and more important for many purposes. Differences in cell wall composition and the mode of growth of some basidiomycetes are the major limitations for utilization of common...
متن کاملComparison of general fungal and basidiomycete-specific ITS primers for identification of wood decay fungi
The identity of the fungi associated with and responsible for wood decay could lead to the development of more environmentally benign wood preservative systems. In this study we have reconstructed the phylogenetic tree of a select group of basidiomycete fungi using nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. We then compared this to trees generated from restriction fra...
متن کاملExperimental method to (quantify progressive stages of decay of wood by basidiomycete fungi
A biological exposure method was developed that allows wood samples to be progressively removed for monitoring colonization and decay by basidiomycete fungi. Monitoring involves strength tests, determination of weight loss, and chemical analysis. To optimize the procedure, several variations of the method were tested using two species of brown-rot fungi (Gloeophyllum trabeum and Oligoporus plac...
متن کاملExtensive sampling of basidiomycete genomes demonstrates inadequacy of the white-rot/brown-rot paradigm for wood decay fungi.
Basidiomycota (basidiomycetes) make up 32% of the described fungi and include most wood-decaying species, as well as pathogens and mutualistic symbionts. Wood-decaying basidiomycetes have typically been classified as either white rot or brown rot, based on the ability (in white rot only) to degrade lignin along with cellulose and hemicellulose. Prior genomic comparisons suggested that the two d...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of mating recognition in basidiomycete fungi.
The recognition of compatible mating partners in the basidiomycete fungi requires the coordinated activities of two gene complexes defined as the mating-type genes. One complex encodes members of the homeobox family of transcription factors, which heterodimerize on mating to generate an active transcription regulator. The other complex encodes peptide pheromones and 7-transmembrane receptors th...
