Transcriptomic responses of mixed cultures of ascomycete fungi to lignocellulose using dual RNA-seq reveal inter-species antagonism and limited beneficial effects on CAZyme expression (2017)
Journal Article
Daly, P., van Munster, J. M., Kokolski, M., Sang, F., Blythe, M. J., Malla, S., …Archer, D. B. (2017). Transcriptomic responses of mixed cultures of ascomycete fungi to lignocellulose using dual RNA-seq reveal inter-species antagonism and limited beneficial effects on CAZyme expression. Fungal Genetics and Biology, 102, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fgb.2016.04.005

Gaining new knowledge through fungal monoculture responses to lignocellulose is a widely used approach that can lead to better cocktails for lignocellulose saccharification (the enzymatic release of sugars which are subsequently used to make biofuels...

Expression of Aspergillus niger CAZymes is determined by compositional changes in wheat straw generated by hydrothermal or ionic liquid pretreatments (2017)
Journal Article
Daly, P., van Munster, J. M., Blythe, M. J., Ibbett, R., Kokolski, M., Gaddipati, S., …Archer, D. B. (2017). Expression of Aspergillus niger CAZymes is determined by compositional changes in wheat straw generated by hydrothermal or ionic liquid pretreatments. Biotechnology for Biofuels, 10(1), Article 35. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13068-017-0700-9

Background The capacity of fungi, such as Aspergillus niger, to degrade lignocellulose is harnessed in biotechnology to generate biofuels and high-value compounds from renewable feedstocks. Most feedstocks are currently pretreated to increase enzy...
