Abstract: Straw (wheat, barley, oat, rye, rice) represents the main agricultural crop residue in the world and botanically belongs to the Graminae family. Cereal straws are lignocelullosic material rich in energy, low in crude protein and poor in palatability. One characteristic of straw is that it mainly consists of 60–70% carbohydrates (Jackson 1977). Lignin complexed with cellulose and hemicellulose makes the carbohydrates of straw less accessible to microbial attack in the rumen. Lignin acts as a barrier to the utilization of structural carbohydrates. Considering the quantitative importance of these crop residues, considerable efforts have been made to upgrade their nutritive value (Flachowsky et al. 1999).

Fungal treated lignocellulosic biomass as ruminant feed ingredient: a review.
TL;DR: Ceriporiopsis subvermispora and Pleurotus eryngii are the most effective fungi to improve the nutritional value of biomass for ruminant nutrition, but conclusions on the effectiveness of fungal delignification are difficult to draw due to a lack of standardized culture conditions and information on fungal strains used.

TL;DR: To applications of mediators to improve mechanical properties by laccase action, recent studies suggest that a successive xylanase-laccase treatment with or without mediators might also be useful in efficiently modifying fibre surfaces at least in paper production.

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of crude enzyme extracts, obtained from solid state cultivation of four white-rot fungi (Trametes versicolor, Bjerkandera adusta, Ganoderma applanatum and Phlebia rufa), was exploited to modify wheat straw cell wall.

TL;DR: The oil crisis during the 1970s turned interest towards the utilization of renewable resources and towards lignocellulosics in particular, and the commercial utilization of this technology has not progressed as rapidly as one would have desired.
