The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Biodegradation: Involved Microorganisms and Genetically Engineered Microorganisms (2013, background): “However, in most cases the term biodegra‐ dation is generally used to describe almost any biologically mediated change in a substrate [3].”
Role of Microbial Enzymes in the Bioremediation of Pollutants: A Review (2011, background): “Cellulases now promise the potential of converting waste cellulosic material into foods to meet burgeoning population and have been the subject of intense research [55].”
Lignocellulosic residues: biodegradation and bioconversion by fungi. (2009, background): “The organisms predominantly responsible for lignocellulose degradation are fungi, and the most rapid degraders in this group are basidiomycetes (ten Have and Teunissen, 2001; Bennett et al., 2002; Rabinovich et al., 2004).”
Inactivation of fungi from deteriorated paper materials by radiation (2006, background): “Fungi can hydrolyse a wide variety of polymers, including cellulose, as a result of their efficient degradative enzymes (Bennett and Faison, 1997).”
