Abstract
Gliocladium sp. TUB F-498, a wild strain of a lignocellulolytic fungus with a fast growth rate and enzyme production rate was selected as a potential in situ enzyme source for the bioprocessing of pretreated poplar wood (PPW) to ethanol in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process. TUB F-498 produced 77 filter paper units of cellulase activity and 246 IU of β-glucosidase activity per g dry weight of substrate utilized, as compared with the highly successful mutant reference strain Trichoderma reesei Rut-C30, which produced 100 filter paper units and 92 IU per g dry weight substrate in a stirred-tank fermentation. TUB F-498 also produced more xylanase and endoglucanase activity than Rut-C30 on PPW in shake-flask fermentations.
