Basidiomycetes Notes:
Basidiomycetes are an impressive group of fungi as they illustrate remarkable adjustment skills to survive in the unfavorable conditions of the environment and act as natural lignocellulose destroyers. To degrade the vegetal biomass, two kinds of extracellular enzymatic systems are possessed by basidiomycetes: 1) a hydrolytic system to degrade polysaccharides 2) a distinctive oxidative ligninolytic arrangement.
