Abstract:

Degradation of the lignocellulose complex in wood varies depending on the microorganism causing decay. The degradative processes of white-, brown-, and soft-rot fungi as well as different forms of bacterial degradation are presented. Ultrastructural methods were used to elucidate cell-wall alterations that occurred during the various stages of decay. In wood inoculated with the white-rot fungus Ceriporiopsis subvermispora, changes in the cell wall, such as electron-dense zones after staining with uranyl acetate, were evident during incipient stages of decay. The ratio of syringyl:guaiacyl lignin of different woods, different cell types, and even the different layers within a cell wall influenced the type and extent of decay by white-rot fungi. Soft rots caused unique changes in the lignocellulose matrix. The type of wood substrate governed the form (type I or type II) of soft rot that occurred. Brown-rot fungi depolymerized cellulose early in the decay process and degraded cellulose without prior removal of lignin. Bacterial degradation was common in waterlogged woods and three forms, tunneling, erosion and cavitation, are discussed. In addition to an improved understanding of decay processes in living trees and forest products, knowledge of decomposition mechanisms is important to utilize effectively these microorganisms for new industrial bioprocessing technologies. Key words: biodegradation, white rot, brown rot, soft rot, bacterial degradation.

Abstract:

Effects were assessed for the post-culture liquid medium originating from the cultivation of microorganisms that are present in the ecosystem called symbiotic consortium bacteria and yeast (SCOBY). The effectiveness of protecting Scotch pine wood samples against decomposition caused by the fungus Coniophora puteana was evaluated. The obtained results confirmed that impregnation of wood with post-culture medium reduces the possibility of decomposition of this wood by the test fungus. The potential biocidal effect of the post-culture medium from SCOBY was attributed to the presence the substances of a potential fungicidal nature, which were synthesized in the culture medium during metabolic processes occurring in the culture. The obtained results encourage further studies on the potential use of metabolites obtained from SCOBY breeding to protect wood against biodegradation.

Abstract:

Interactions of two wood decay fungi, Lentinula edodes and Pleurotus ostreatus, with other wood inhabiting microorganisms were investigated on agar and in fagaceous wood, primarily by scanning electron microscopy. Micromorphologically, there were two principal modes of cell wall degradation: (i) selective removal of amorphous wall components, followed by the degradation of skeletal microfibrils, and (ii) simultaneous degradation of all wall components. These two modes were observed in three different degradation systems: (i) sapwood wall degradation by the wood decay fungi, (ii) hyphal wall degradation by mycoparasitic Trichoderma, and (iii) hyphal wall degradation by pathogenic bacteria. The simultaneous-type wall degradation in the systems i and ii was usually caused by hyphal tips. In addition to the three systems, bacteriolysis by the wood decay fungi was also studied. The bacterial cell walls, as well as microfibril bundles of wood cellulose and fungal chitin, were all fragmented into minute granules at later stages of microbial degradation and the granules were further degraded into smaller units. Frequency of occurrence and strength of mycoparasitic activity of Trichoderma harzianum were influenced by the degree of wood decay where the interaction occurred. Presence of both cellulose and chitin microfibrils apparently enhanced the mycoparasitic activity. In Quercus wood, P. ostreatus showed a unidirectional growth toward bacterial colonies, which formed as the result of decomposition of dead nematodes, and consumed the unidentified bacteria. In nitrogen-deficient wood, fungal and bacterial cell walls may serve as an important reservoir of nitrogen for wood inhabiting microorganisms. Key words: wood decay, mycoparasitism, bacteriolysis, cellulose, chitin.

Abstract:

Wood is a habitat for a variety of organisms, including saprophytic fungi and bacteria, playing an important role in wood decomposition. Wood inhabiting fungi release a diversity of volatiles used as signaling compounds to attract or repel other organisms. Here, we show that volatiles of Schizophyllum commune are active against wood-decay fungi and bacteria found in its mycosphere. We identified sesquiterpenes as the biologically active compounds, that inhibit fungal growth and modify bacterial motility. The low number of cultivable wood inhabiting bacteria prompted us to analyze the microbial community in the mycosphere of S. commune using a culture-independent approach. Most bacteria belong to Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria, including Pseudomonadaceae, Sphingomonadaceae, Erwiniaceae, Yersiniaceae and Mariprofundacea as the dominating families. In the fungal community, the phyla of ascomycetes and basidiomycetes were well represented. We propose that fungal volatiles might have an important function in the wood mycosphere and could meditate interactions between microorganisms across domains and within the fungal kingdom.

Abstract:

Aquatic ecosystems in tropical forests have a high diversity of microorganisms, including fungi, which are important decomposers of submerged wood. Despite the importance of their role in decomposition, research concerning the diversity of freshwater fungi from Brazilian Amazonian environments is scarce. The aim of this work was to describe the composition and diversity of fungi present on submerged wood in two lakes of the Brazilian Amazon (State of Pará). Fragments of decaying wood (30 samples per lake) were collected from the Lakes Juá and Maicá. The wood samples were inspected for 6 months in the presence of fungal reproductive structures. Fungi observed in the wood were identified morphologically. Twenty-three taxa were identified in the Lake Juá (10 sexual and 13 asexual) and 26 taxa in the Lake Maicá (17 sexual, 9 asexual). ITS sequences were obtained for 14 taxa to aid in identification. In the Lakes Juá and Maicá, the diversity indices were H': 2.6514 and H': 2.8174, respectively. The Sørensen index of the fungal communities in the studied lakes was 0.3673. This study is the first to describe the fungal biodiversity of two important aquatic environments in Pará, Brazil.

Abstract:

Bark protects living trees against environmental influences but may promote wood decomposition by fungi and bacteria after tree death. However, the mechanisms by which bark determines the assembly process and biodiversity of decomposers remain unknown. Therefore, we partially or completely removed bark from experimentally felled trees and tested with null modelling whether assembly processes were determined by bark coverage and if biodiversity of molecularly sampled fungi and bacteria generally benefited from increasing bark cover. The community composition of fungi, wood-decaying fungi (subset of all fungi) and bacteria clearly separated between completely debarked, partly debarked and control trees. Bacterial species richness was higher on control trees than on either partly or completely debarked trees, whereas the species richness of all fungi did not differ. However, the species richness of wood-decaying fungi was higher on partially and completely debarked trees than on control trees. Deterministic assembly processes were most important in completely debarked trees, a pattern consistent for fungi and bacteria. Our findings suggest that human disturbances in forests shift the dominant assembly mechanism from stochastic to deterministic processes and thus alter the diversity of wood-inhabiting microorganisms.

AbstrakSerasah mangrove berperan penting dalam kesuburan perairan pesisir. Serasah mangrove yang terdekomposisi akan menghasilkan unsur hara yang diserap oleh tanaman dan digunakan oleh jasad renik di lantai hutan dan sebagian lagi akan terlarut dan terbawa air surut ke perairan sekitarnya. Penelitian dilakukan dengan cara menghitung penyusutan bobot serasah awal yang terdekomposisi kemudian membandingkan bobot serasah yang terdekomposisi tiap bulan. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh tingkat kedalaman tanah yang dapat mempercepat proses dekomposisi serasah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kedalaman tanah berpengaruh terhadap laju dekomposisi serasah jenis Avecennia lanata, tiap kedalaman tanah memiliki jenis dan jumlah mikroorganisme yang berbeda-beda, kondisi ini akan dapat berpengaruh terhadp laju dekomposisi serasah dan tingkat kedalaman 10 cm yang paling berpengaruh terhadap laju dekomposisi serasah Avecennia lanata yaitu yaitu sebesar 0,29-0,39 gram/hari. Kata kunci: dekomposisi serasah, Avecennia lanata, Tingkat kedalaman tanah AbstractMangrove litters play important role in coastal water fertility. The decomposed mangrove litters will produce nutrient absorbed by plants and some of them will be used by microorganisms in wood floor and the other will be dissolved and carried by the low tide to the surrounding waters. The research was conducted by calculating the depreciation of the initial weight of the decomposed litters and comparing it to the decomposed litter weight every month. The research aimed to find out the influence of soil depth that could accelerate litters decomposition process. The research result indicated that soil depth influenced the decomposition rate of Avecennia lanata litters. Each soil depth had different type and number of microorganisms. The condition would influence the decomposition rate of the litters. Soil depth of 10 cm was the most influential on the decomposition rate of Avecennia lanata litters, which was 0.29-0.39 gram/day.

Abstract:

The cadmium (Cd) concentration of wood ash (130 mg·kg1) is higher than allowed for agriculture fertilizers (3 mg·kg1). Therefore, the objectives of this field study were to test if the Cd of wood ash has the potential to affect the coniferous forest humus microflora and if Cd enters the human food chain. These objectives were tested with ash (A) and Cd-spiked ash (ACd, 400 mg Cd·kg1) at a fertilization rate of 3 t·ha1. Microbial community structure, respiration, needle litter decomposition, growth rates and Cd tolerance of bacteria, and the bioavailability of Cd were measured. Also, Cd concentrations of humus, soil percolation water, mushrooms, fruits and leaves of berries, and needles were determined. The amount of Cd in the percolation water or bioavailable Cd, measured with a bacterial biosensor, and Cd tolerance of bacteria did not increase, although the ACd treatment increased the amount of humus total and extractable Cd. Only the ACd and not the A treatment caused Cd concentration increment in Lactarius rufus and berries of Empetrum nigrum. In spite of the high Cd concentration of the spiked ash, it did not have harmful effects on humus microorganisms during this 4-year study. Thus, wood ash is safe to use as a fertilizer in forests.

Abstract:

<p>To initiate the decomposition process need decomposer inoculants and an easily available nutrient as C sources (sugar, carbohydrate) and N sources (protein, N inorganic fertilizer). Fresh organic materials are suitable sources for all nutrient needed. Cattle manure or Urea is important N sources for the initiation of composting process. Charcoal – Ash is referring the entire remnants of a wood/bamboo burning fire. In reality, what remains after a typical fire in a bamboo or wood burning stove or fireplace is both ash and charcoal. Both ash and charcoal can offer tremendous benefits to the compost and garden soil. In order to enhance the decomposition processes and its quality of compost, addition of other valuable materials are necessary. Therefore preliminary study of synergy of biochar for composting was conducted. The field experiments were conducted in Terantang village, Sampit-Central Kalimantan and laboratory analysis were conducted in the laboratory of ecology and physiology of microorganisms, Reserach Center for Biology Cibinong. The parameters measured were the number of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria after composting and the C/N ratio of the compost. Those all parameters were compared with natural composting (control). The significant higher number of PGPR and better quality of final compost of treated biochar were observed. In this paper, more detail the effect of biochar on composting, its quality of compost and their effect on sorghum nursery will be discussed. </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: biochar, compost, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, sorghum</p>

Abstract:

Abstract The economic significance of aspen Populus tremula l. is only marginal, which is the main reason for its low share in the structure of stands. however, aspen can play a decisive ecological role as a pioneer tree in the succession of forest communities and may decrease the occurrence of pathogenic fungi. Aspen is also dying out and in order to determine possible biotic causes, we examined taxa of fungi using classical and molecular methods in the area of the Czerwony Dwór Forest District, Subdistrict Rogale, compartments 74b and 75j. The health of aspen trees and the quantitative and qualitative structure of microorganisms associated with Armillaria spp. was evaluated. Based on our health assessment of the aspen, we conclude that the main reason for its dying out is the intensification of root rot, which is a result of Armillaria spp weakening the trees. In the general pool of Armillaria-associated microorganisms, saprotrophs were dominating, and the fungus Fomitopsis pinicola commonly inhabited the poplar stems, whereas pathogen antagonists comprised the lowest proportion. In the quantitative and qualitative structure of fungi found in rhizomorphs, the composition of ecological groups inhabiting stumps was found to be favourable nevertheless. The increasing frequency of pathogens on the logs is a major premise for removing trees affected by Armillaria, because aspen stumps are a good food base for A. cepistipes and A. ostoyae which ultimately spread within the stand. Treatment of stumps with preparations stimulating the decomposition of wood is not recommended for logs that form the food base for pathogenic fungi.

Abstract:

Sammanfattning: Wood decay fungi are the main decomposer of lignocellulose material stored in wood. Thus, all factors that affect them could affect their ecological function. This in return, may affect ecosystem functioning in terms of altered carbon emissions from dead wood. Increased temperature is one of the main factors influencing fungal decay. The aim of the current study is to explore the effects of temperature and assembly history (order of species arrival), two important regulators of fungal communities, on wood decomposition. I conducted a microcosm experiment with two temperature treatments and eight assembly histories where each species was allowed to colonize the wood two weeks ahead of the rest of the species. The temperature treatments were set to mimic the effect of climate induced warming. Therefore, I had one treatment with relatively high temperature, representing the expected temperatures year 2100 given the current emission trends of the northern inland of Sweden, and another treatment representing the current normal temperature (1961-1990). The temperature treatments had an average difference of 5°C. In order to see how climate induced warming and fungal assembly history influenced decomposition, I measured and analyzed initial fungal growth, fungal respiration and wood weight loss. Both temperature and assembly history had a significant influence on fungal growth, fungal respiration and wood decomposition. There was also strong interaction between the two factors. The average increase in mass loss under elevated temperature was 19% compared to 14% under normal temperature. The highest mass loss (25%) was when Phlebia centrifuga was the initial species under elevated temperature and the lowest (12%) was when Climacocystis borealis was initial species under normal temperature. All assembly histories had higher mass loss under elevated temperature, but the magnitude varied. For example, when C. borealis was the initial species, mass loss increased by 60% compared to only 7% when Antrodia sinuosa was the initial species. Six out of eight assembly histories had higher CO2 under elevated temperature, with the highest increase (88%) in P. centrifuga histories and the lowest (7%) in C. borealis histories. Even if the results need to be confirmed by field studies, my data illustrates that climate induced warming probably results in higher fungal respiration and deadwood decomposition and that the magnitude of this effect depends on fungal assembly history.

Abstract:

The distribution of bacteria in Sitka spruce stumps between one and ten years old was investigated by dilution plating wood chips taken from seven sampling positions up to 55 mm from the stump surface. The same wood chips were used to determine the presence Basidiomycotina within the stump wood. The number of bacterial colony forming units in the wood samples decreased in stumps between one and five years old, reaching a minimum after six years, before increasing in stumps up to ten years old. There was also a decline in numbers of bacteria isolated with increasing distance from the stump surface and the stump edge. A similar trend was detected in the diversity of the bacterial community. The size of the bacterial population was also correlated with stump moisture content. The presence of Basidiomycotina was associated with the presence of bacteria within the sample. However, the number of bacteria isolated from samples containing Basidiomycotina did not differ from that where no Basidiomycotina were isolated. Interactions between wood-decay fungi, including Heterobasidion annosum, and bacterial isolates were studied in vitro. The growth medium, timing of inoculations, and bacterial and fungal species tested were fund to significantly affect the outcome of the interaction. Bacterial isolates degraded cellulose, pectin and starch, cellulolytic ability increased with increasing stump age. Siderophores and chitinase, potential antifungal compounds, were produced by 29% and 2% of isolates respectively, however, these isolates had no effect on the distribution of Basidiomycotina in the stumps. Four groups of bacteria were identified from cluster analysis of 13 phenotypic characteristics. Different groups of bacteria were found to dominate bacteria isolated from stumps of different ages indicating that bacterial successions occur in decaying Sitka spruce stumps.

Full text

Abstract:

Thujaplicins are the major components in the steam-volatile fraction of western redcedar (Thuja plicata Donn.) (WRC) heartwood extractives. They are consided to be highly toxic to fungi and are chiefly responsible for WRC heartwood decay resistance. This study proves that this traditional concept of toxicity is not completely correct. Thujaplicins are toxic to common decay fungi isolated from decayed WRC wood in living trees or wood in service, such as Poria albipelIucida Baxter. On the other hand, when a fungus such as Sporothrix sp. invades sound heartwood of living WRC, thujaplicins do not provide resistance but instead are altered by that fungus, so that their toxicity to decay fungi is destroyed. Evidence obtained in this study indicates that the mechanism of thujaplicin toxicity to common decay fungi involves the reactive keto-enolic group. As example, thujaplicin toxicity disappears if this reactive group is blocked by laboratory methylation. In living trees detoxification by Sporothrix sp. is demonstrated to involve a process of oxidative dimerization and isomerization of the thujaplicins to a new lactone compound. This compound is proven to have no toxicity to decay fungi, such as Poria albipelIucida Baxter. The dimerization and isomerization destroy the reactivity of the keto-enolic group and thus thujaplicin toxicity. Isolation, purification, and determination of the chemical structure of the new lactone compound produced from thujaplicins during Sporothrix sp. infection was carried out by chemical, chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. This naturally occurring compound has not been isolated previously and there are no previous reports in the literature about a compound with this structure. Following IUPAC rules, the compound is named as 3,3,4,7,7,8-hexamethyl-2,6-dioxa-1,5-anthracene-dione, and given the trivial name 'Thujin'. Biological experiments carried out in this study clearly show that in living WRC trees, fungal attack involves a succession of microorganisms. Three early stage attacking fungi were consistantly isolated from discolored WRC heartwood. They are identified as Sporothrix sp. KirschsteinieIIa thujina (Peck) Pomerleau & Etheridge and Phialophora sp. Biological roles of these fungi are demonstrated based upon the results of wood block bioassays and chemical analysis of wood blocks treated with the three fungal isolates.

Abstract:

Reactive Black 5 and Procion Red MX 5B, an azo and anthraquinone dye repectively were decoulorized by mean of microorganisms growing on wood chips. The process consisted of three reactors, two anaerobic reactors and one aerobic reactor. The anaerobic process was used in order to make it possible to break the nitrogen bond of the azo group, (-N=N-) and the aerobic one to increase the possibility for the degradation of possible intermediates. After pumping wastewater through the system it was shown that mixtures or Reactive Black 5 and Procion Red MX 5B were efficiently decolourised at 50 mg/l as well as 200 mg/l of each of the dyes.

Abstract:

Chapter 10 “Environmental DNA for functional diversity” discusses the potential of environmental DNA to assess functional diversity. It first focuses on DNA metabarcoding and discusses the extent to which this approach can be used and/or optimized to retrieve meaningful information on the functions of the target community. This knowledge usually involves coarsely defined functional groups (e.g., woody, leguminous, graminoid plants; shredders or decomposer soil organisms; pathogenicity or decomposition role of certain microorganisms). Chapter 10 then introduces metagenomics and metatranscriptomics approaches, their advantages, but also the challenges and solutions to appropriately sampling, sequencing these complex DNA/RNA populations. Chapter 10 finally presents several strategies and software to analyze metagenomes/metatranscriptomes, and discusses their pros and cons.

Abstract:

Functional reasoning is regarded as an important asset to the engineering designers’ conceptual toolkit. Yet despite the value of functional reasoning for engineering design, a consensus view is lacking and several distinct proposals have been formulated. In this paper some of the main models for functional reasoning that are currently in use or discussed in engineering are surveyed and some of their differences clarified. The models included the Functional Basis approach by Stone and Wood [1], the Function Behavior State approach by Umeda et al. [2, 3, 4], and the Functional Reasoning approach of Chakrabarti and Bligh [5, 6]. This paper explicates differences between these approaches relating to: (1) representations of function and how they are influenced by design aims and form solutions, and (2) functional decomposition strategies, taken as the reasoning from overall artifact functions to sub-functions, and how these decomposition strategies are influenced by the use of existing engineering design knowledge bases.

Abstract:

This study deals with the conversion of waste wood into solid fuel charcoal. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses techniques are used to investigate the kinetics of thermochemical conversion of waste wood. The thermal degradation characteristics and the kinetic parameters (order of reaction, activation energy and pre-exponential factor) are determined at different heating rates using TG/DTA curves. The decomposition of the components could be modeled by an Arrhenius kinetic expression. The kinetic parameters are determined from the thermogravimetric data by a least square technique. The order of reaction and activation of energy vary from 0.41 to 0.52 and 10.86 to 15.10 kJ/mole respectively. Finally attempts are taken to produce charcoal from the waste wood and the charcoals are characterized in respect of yield, electrical conductivity, ESCA (electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis), XRD (x-ray diffraction) and ignition characteristics.

Abstract:

Wooden railway sleepers are impregnated with the chemicals that prevent the disassembling of the wood splitter. Such chemical wood impregnator as creosote or shale oil have been widely used to prolong the lifetime of wooden railway sleepers, protecting them from the negative microorganisms and atmospheric effects. These substances are based on aromatic hydrocarbons (powerful carcinogens), phenolic compounds, heterocyclic nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur compounds. Lithuania formes over 30,000 pieces of wooden sleepers improper for use annually. Based on the existing environmental legislation, used wooden railway sleepers can not be burned anywehere else except hazardous waste inceneration facilities or can not be buried because of their negative impact on the environment and human health, therefore, this unsuitable wooden sleepers are only stored in their collection or storage areas and they are a major threat to the environment. The aim of this articel is to study how the wooden railway sleepers stored in Vilnius city (Lithuania) are contaminated with the aromatic hydrocarbons using the gas chromatography. Wooden railway sleepers were sampled and prepared for chemical analysis.
