Dissecting intraspecies diversity in fungal wood decay

Lead Institution
Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute
Principal Investigator
Ronald de Vries
Project type
FICUS Research
Basidiomycete fungi are essential for degradation of wood in natural eco-systems and therefore a crucial part of the global carbon cycle. Genomic and post-genomic studies into several basidiomycete…

Colony plasticity of filamentous fungi

Lead Institution
Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute
Principal Investigator
Ronald de Vries
Project type
Exploratory Research
We will use the ascomycete industrial workhorse A. niger, which is one of the best studied fungal species with respect to plant biomass conversion. In nature, fungal colonies can cover substantial…
