Detoxification of coumarins by rumen anaerobic fungi: insights into microbial degradation pathways and agricultural applications

Abstract Background Coumarins are toxic phytochemicals found in a variety of plants and are known to limit microbial degradation and interfere with nutrient cycling. While the degradation of coumarins by fungi has been studied in an environmental context, little is known about their degradation in t...
