Interaction among multiple microorganisms and effects of nitrogen and carbon supplementations on lignin degradation

A stable and effective microbial consortium including two indigenous bacteria (Bacillus sp. (B) and Pseudomonas putida (Pp)) and two inter-kingdom fusants (PE-9 and Xz6-1) was constructed. The multiple microorganisms could produce laccase and exhibited immense environmental adaptability and excellent capability of lignin degradation in alkalescent conditions.
