Molecular mechanisms of plastic biodegradation by the fungus Clonostachys rosea

ABSTRACT Microbial degradation can provide an avenue for the remediation of plastic pollution, contributing to the urgent environmental problem of global plastic waste. We demonstrate the degradation of polycaprolactone (PCL) by Clonostachys rosea and elucidate its underlying molecular mechanisms. W...
