Arai T, Ichinose S, Shibata N, Kakeshita H, Kodama H, Igarashi K, et al.
Sci Rep . 2022 Nov; 12(1):19445. PMID: 36376415
Trichoderma reesei is a widely used host for producing cellulase and hemicellulase cocktails for lignocellulosic biomass degradation. Here, we report a genetic modification strategy for industrial T. reesei that enables...

Biotechnol Biofuels . 2021 Feb; 14(1):39. PMID: 33557925
Background: Trichoderma reesei is a filamentous fungus that is important as an industrial producer of cellulases and hemicellulases due to its high secretion of these enzymes and outstanding performance in...
