Table 1.

Diverse types of rot fungi for lignocellulose biomass (LCB) degradation.

Type Example Substrate Outcome Reference
Soft rot Parascedosporium putredinis NO1 Wheat straw Expansion of CaZymes by monooxygenase, oxidative enzymes, and laccase. Scott et al. 2023
  Xylaria species
[Xylaria 1 (OR052384), Xylaria 2 (OR052385), Xylaria 3 (X. curta) (OR052386)]
Ochroma pyramidale (Balsa), Gmelina arborea (melina), Samanea saman (saman), and Chlorophora tinctoria (mora) Significant biomass loss; 60% and 25% of Ochroma and Gmelina respectively. Rajtar et al. 2023
Brown rot Gloeophyllum trabecum, Rhodonia placenta Dendrocalamus sinicus Hemicellulose and cellulose degradation by xylanase and mannase. Qi et al. 2022
  Gloeophyllum trabecum Pinus massoniana (Masson pine) Depolymerisation of cellulose and hemicellulose by non-enzymatic chelator-mediated Fenton (CMF) system resulting in 15.7% biomass loss. Zhu et al. 2022
  Coniophora puteana, Rhodonia placenta Scots pine sapwood Depolymerisation of crystallisation carbohydrates, as well as a rise in lignin’s functionality and aromatic carbonyl content. Belt et al. 2022
  Rhodonia placenta Picea abies (spruce wood) Accumulation of oxalate within the cell wall, depolymerisation of hemicellulose. Füchtner et al. 2023
White rot Trametes versicolor, Gloeophyllum trabeum, and Rhodonia placenta Dendrocalamus sinicus T. versicolor degraded starch and pectin, followed by hemicellulose and lignin, G. trabeum and R. placenta degradation occur in the middle stage, with preferential degradation of hemicellulose and cellulose, respectively. Qi et al. 2022
  Coriolopsis trogii Industrial lignin (C. trogii TS01), Kraft lignin, EHL (Enzyme hydrolysis lignin) The activity of C. trogii TS01‘s laccase and manganese-dependent peroxidase activity was raised by 24.8%, 164.1%, and 200%, respectively, by 1% EHL + 1% glucose. Qiu and Liu 2022
  Lentinula edodes Grape stalks 52% delignification in 42 days of incubation. Costa-Silva et al. 2022
  Ganoderma lucidium Cocoa pods Low capacity to digest cellulose and hemicellulose, high lignin degradation. Mustabi et al. 2023
