The Role of White-rot Fungi in Herbicide Transformation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Understanding herbicide transformation is necessary for pesticide development for their safe and efficient use, as well as for developing pesticide bioremediation strategies for contaminated soil and water. Recent studies persuasively demonstrated the key role of soil white-rot fungi in biotransformation of various anthropogenic environmental con‐ taminants. However, often this common knowledge is not associated with specific meta‐ bolic processes of fungi and therefore cannot be transformed into specific recommendations for agricultural practice. The given review offers a systematic collec‐ tion and analysis of the current knowledge about herbicide transformation by white-rot fungi at the cellular and molecular levels. Special attention is given to the role of oxida‐ tive enzymes such as laccases, lignin peroxidases, and manganese peroxidases in the bio‐ transformation processes.

BACKGROUND White-rot fungi are primarily the major degraders of lignin, a major obstacle for commercial exploitation of plant byproducts to produce bioethanol and other industrially important products. However, to improve their efficacy for lignin degradation, it has become necessary to genetically modify these organisms using appropriate vectors. Agrobacterium tumefaciens, a soil phytopathogen...
