“…We found that armillarioids have a much richer arsenal of lignin-, pectin-, cellulose-, and hemicellulose-degrading enzymes. The large repertoires of lignocellulose-degrading enzymes may well contribute to the distinctive wood-decaying potential of the armillarioids and make them suitable candidates for applications in commercial areas such as biomass processing for biofuel production (Abraham and Puri, 2020). In addition, the extracellular enzymes produced by armillarioid species belonging to auxiliary activities (AA), besides degrading lignin and crystalline cellulose, can efficiently decompose all other phenolics and terpene-related compounds produced in plant tissues (Andlar et al, 2018).…”
