Isolation and Identification of Fungi Associated with Decay of Quercus mongolica

The Quercus mongolica has a high utilization value in industrial economic sector. species is distributed throughout Korea, however, the damage caused by deterioration such as discoloration and decay severe. For this reason, of Q. an obstacle to its use wood, but research on factors insufficient. In study, we focused fungi factor influencing mongolica, isolated identified from deteriorated mongolica. additions, order confirm whether actually affects wood deterioration, enzyme activities were evaluated related mass loss treated with was measured test. As result sequencing analysis using ITS region genomic DNA Mucor circinelloides, Cunninghamella elegans, Umbelopsis isabellina 3 belonging Mucoromycota phylum, Ophiostoma piceae Aureobasidium melanogenum 2 Ascomycota phylum identified. These five had (i.e. cellulase, laccase) reduced heartwood sapwood practice. particular, O. A. melanogenum, which have both cellulase laccase activities, showed 6.9% 1.5% loss, respectively. results indicated that study influence are decaying for potentially.
