Genome sequencing of fungus may lead to improved bioethanol production from wood

Scientists have discovered the mechanisms with which certain types of fungus attacks wood in order to use the cellulose contained within. These results are important for designing processes using wood to produce bioethanol.

The results, published recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has enabled the determination of the mechanisms with which this fungus attacks wood in order to use the cellulose contained within. These results are important for designing processes using wood to produce bioethanol. …
