Sugar-mediated inhibition of growth and lignocellulose degradation in anaerobic gut fungi revealed using cellulose filter paper
Anaerobic gut fungi (AGF) are central to the degradation of plant material in the digestive systems of herbivores. However, how their environment influences their colonisation and degradation of complex biomass is unclear. Here, cellulose filter paper was used as a simplified model of the plant cell wall to investigate...
