TL;DR
The Ganoderma species, which causes extensive wood delignification in the Chilean rain forest and was formerly identified as G. applanatum, showed a fatty acid pattern similar to that found in European G. australe.
Abstract
Over 75 % of the free fatty acids in Ganoderma fruit-bodies are 18-carbon unsaturated acids. Whereas the percentages of oleic and linoleic acid found in Ganoderma australe were similar, the latter acid was more abundant in G. applanatum. The Ganoderma species, which causes extensive wood delignification in the Chilean rain forest and was formerly identified as G. applanatum, showed a fatty acid pattern similar to that found in European G. australe.

It is suggested that the extremely low nitrogen content of the investigated wood species was the primary cause for the extensive delignification as well as the concomitant suppression of cellulose breakdown.

The structural changes in lignin during the white rot degradation were examined by thioacidolysis, which revealed that the beta-aryl ether-linked syringyl units were more specifically degraded than the guaiacyl ones, particularly in the case of selective delignification.

In Chilean rain forest the presence and distribution of yeasts were studied during the fungal transformation of wood, producing a partially delignified material used as cattle feed, and a relationship was observed between the populations developing at the different stages of wood decay by Ganoderma applanatum.
