Abstract
A soil-inhabiting Fusarium proliferatum strain was capable of transfor ming or degrading nonlabeled and C-14-labeled industrial, natural, and synthetic lignin. The mineralization rate per day (expressed as the p ercentage of added radioactivity recovered as to (CO2)-C-14) was maxim al during primary metabolism.
