Various pretreatments are employed to increase the utilization of rice straw as a ruminant feed ingredient minimize its negative environmental impact. However, an efficient alternative is still needed. The purpose this study was evaluate ability ammonia and/or white-rot fungi (Pleurotus ostreatus) degrade lignin, nutritional value, and enhance rumen fermentability straw. Rice treated with basidiomycete (P. untreated control under solid-state fermentation employing completely randomized...

Cellulase enzymes attract a lot of research due to their industrial application. Diverse cellulase-producing organisms and substances that induce cellulase are highly sought after. This study aimed evaluate the effect different inducer sources on production by white rot fungi P. ostreatus CGMCC 3.7292 chrysosporium 3.7212 under submerged fermentation employing completely randomized experimental design. The tested were nitrogen (yeast, potassium nitrate, sodium ammonium sulphate, aqueous...
