Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprotrophic fungus; its primary habitat is the soil. In its ecological
niche, the fungus has learned how to adapt and proliferate in hostile environments. This …

Aspergillus species are the paramount ubiquitous fungi that contaminate various food
substrates and produce biochemicals known as mycotoxins. Aflatoxins (AFTs), ochratoxin A …

Enzymes known as lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are recognized as
important contributors to aerobic enzymatic degradation of recalcitrant polysaccharides such …

The plant secretome is usually considered in the frame of proteomics, aiming at
characterizing extracellular proteins, their biological roles and the mechanisms accounting …

Composting involves the selection of a microbiota capable of resisting the high temperatures
generated during the process and degrading the lignocellulose. A deep understanding of …
