To address the poor removal of diesel in soil by indigenous microorganisms, we proposed a fungal solid-state fermentation (SSF) method for bioremediation. We screened Pycnoporus sanguineus 5.815, Trametes versicolor 5.996, and Trametes gibbosa 5.952 for their diesel-degrading abilities, with Trametes versicolor 5.996 showing the most promise. The fungal inoculum was obtained through SSF using wood chips and bran. Trametes versicolor 5.996 was applied to two treatments: natural attenuation (NA, diesel-contaminated soil) and bioremediation (BR, 10% SSF added to diesel-contaminated soil). Over 20 days, NA removed 12.9% of the diesel, while BR achieved a significantly higher 38.3% degradation rate. BR also increased CO2 and CH4 emissions but reduced N2O emissions. High-throughput sequencing indicated SSF significantly enriched known diesel-degrading microorganisms like Ascomycota (83.82%), Proteobacteria (46.10%), Actinobacteria (27.88%), Firmicutes (10.35%), and Bacteroidota (4.66%). This study provides theoretical support for the application of fungal remediation technology for diesel and improves understanding of microbiologically mediated diesel degradation and soil greenhouse gas emissions.

Fermentation of agricultural by-products by white rot fungi is a research hotspot in the development of ruminant feed resources. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of the nutritional value and rumen fermentation properties of white tea residue fermented at different times, using single and dual culture white rot fungal species. Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Pleurotus ostreatus, and Phanerochaete chrysosporium + Pleurotus ostreatus (dual culture) solid-state fermented white tea residue was used for 4 weeks, respectively. The crude protein content increased significantly in all treatment groups after 4 weeks. Total extractable tannin content was significantly decreased in all treatment groups (p < 0.01). P. chrysosporium and dual culture significantly reduced lignin content at 1 week. The content of NH3-N increased in each treatment group (p < 0.05). P. chrysosporium treatment can reduce the ratio of acetic to propionic and improve digestibility. Solid state fermentation of white tea residue for 1 week using P. chrysosporium was the most desirable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
