Fungus Dyes Enzymes Notes Reference

Funalia trogii Anthraquinone (Reactive Blue 19),

Drimarene Blue CL-BR

Laccase Highest laccase activity [89]

Geotrichum sp. Diazo (Reactive Black 5), Reactive

Red 158, Reactive Yellow 27

Laccase, MnP, versa-
tile peroxidase

Other fungi ( e.g. , B. adusta , Irpex
lacteus , T. versicolor ) could not
decolorize Reactive Red 158 and
Reactive Yellow 27

[90]

Irpex lacteus Textile industry eluent (Various

reactive, acid, metal complex,
and disperse dyes)

Laccase, MnP, versa-
tile peroxidase

No LiP or RBBR oxidase activity [72]

Anthraquinone (Reactive Blue 19),
diazo (Reactive Black 5)

Laccase, MnP Reactive Black 5 was more resis-

tant, no LiP, laccase and MnP
may not be very important

[91]

Ischnoderma
resinosum

Anthraquinone (Reactive Blue 19),
azo (Acid Orange 10)

Laccase Most eicient among three strains

tested (see D. squalens and
P. calyptratus )

[79]

Lentinula edodes Anthraquinone (Poly R-478) Laccase, MnP Heavy metals inhibited decolor-

ization and MnP production,
laccase activity increased

[75]

Anthraquinone (Poly R-478,
Reactive Blue 19), diazo (Direct
Red 28), various azo and
triarylmethane dyes

MnP LiP and laccase activities were low [74]
