| Abstract | This work reviews the brown-rot fungal biochemical mechanism involved in the biodegradation of lignified plant cell walls. This mechanism has been acquired as an apparent alternative to the energetically expensive apparatus of lignocellulose breakdown employed by white-rot fungi. The mechanism relies, at least in the incipient stage of decay, on the oxidative cleavage of glycosidic bonds in cellulose and hemicellulose and the oxidative modification and arrangement of lignin upon attack by highly destructive oxygen reactive species such as the hydroxyl radical generated non-enzymatically via Fenton chemistry $$ ({\text{F}}{{\text{e}}^{{{3} + }}} + {{\text{H}}_{{2}}}{{\text{O}}_{{2}}} \to {\text{F}}{{\text{e}}^{{{2} + }}} + \cdot {\text{OH}}{{ + }^{ - }}{\text{OH}}) $$ . Modifications in the lignocellulose macrocomponents associated with this non-enzymatic attack are believed to aid in the selective, near-complete removal of polysaccharides by an incomplete cellulase suite and without causing substantial lignin removal. Utilization of this process could provide the key to making the production of biofuel and renewable chemicals from lignocellulose biomass more cost-effective and energy efficient. This review highlights the unique features of the brown-rot fungal non-enzymatic, mediated Fenton reaction mechanism, the modifications to the major plant cell wall macrocomponents, and the implications and opportunities for biomass processing for biofuels and chemicals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
