ABSTRACT
The aim of this paper was to identify the core microbes of producing lignocellulolytic enzymes during rice straw composting with functional bacterial agents inoculation. The results indicated that inoculation functional bacterial agents accelerated the degradation of organic matter and coarse fiber content by 7.58%, 8.82%, which were due to the fact that key enzymes and core microbes were stimulated. In addition, inoculation have reconstructed core microbes of producing lignocellulase. Meanwhile, inoculation functional bacterial agents not only as core bacteria to produce cellulase, xylanase and manganese peroxidase (MnP), but also increased most core microbial abundance. Redundancy analysis indicated that CMCase, xylanase, total nitrogen and MnP as key factors to affect the degradation of organic fractions in the core bacterial communities, while in the core fungal communities, were mainly affected by environmental factors (except for MnP). This study provided a theoretical basis for the efficiently degradation during agricultural wastes composting.
