The mixed culture of Trichoderma reesei and Aspergillus niger were found to improve lignocellulase production and ameliorate the composition (Fang et al., 2010; Fang et al., 2013; Zhao et al., 2018) [1-3]. However, the mechanism behind remained unclear. Here we conducted multi-omics study of the mixed culture to elucidate the mechanism comprehensively, including proteomics of the secretomes, metabolomics of the fermentation broths and transcriptomics. The mechanisms at transcriptional, proteomic and metabolomic levels were clarified. Proteomics show many proteins in the secretomes were up-regulated by the mix culture of T. reesei and A. niger, and lignocellulase production and the composition were improved, but the protein numbers and abundances of the lignocellulases were reduced. Transcriptomics demonstrate that lignocellulase gene expressions, stress responses and anti-stress were co-regulated in T. reesei, and that most lignocellulase genes in T. reesei were up-regulated and most A. niger lignocellulase genes were down-regulated. Metabolomics reveal the chemicals and the mechanism of the communication between T. reesei and A. niger in the mixed culture for improved lignocellulase production. The secondary metabolites such as p-cresol, nodularin and tolazoline could play important roles. Integrative analyses indicate that the secondary metabolites, stress-response, anti-stress, starch and sucrose metabolism and lignocellulase gene expressions were orchestrated. As a result, the roles of T. reesei and A. niger in the mixed culture were defined. The mechanism of the mixed culture for improved lignocellulase production was obtained, in short T. reesei was the major role and A. niger the minor. This work provides theory and targets as basis to obtain complete understanding of the mechanism and guide engineering of the microbial consortium of T. reesei and A. niger for further improvements.
