title: Methoxyhydroquinone, an intermediate of vanillate catabolism by Polyporus dichrous.
abstract: Vanillate was metabolized by Polyporus dichrous in liquid culture via methoxyhydroquinone. Protocatechuate, gentisate, and hydroquinone were not affected by vanillate-metabolizing mycelial pellets that readily degraded methoxyhydroquinone.
