The white rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus was grown in a chemically defined solid state fermentation system amended with cotton stalk extract (CSE).Treated cultures exhibited increased laccase activity as well as enhanced lignin mineralization. Mineralization of [14C]lignin initialized 4 days earlier in CSE-supplemented cultures than in control cultures. Total mineralization in the first 16 days was 15% in the CSE-treated cultures, compared with only 7% in the controls. Cotton stalk extract also contained compounds that serve as substrates for laccase purified from P. ostreatus as shown by oxygen consumption, as well as changes in the UVvisible spectrum.Key words: cotton, Pleurotusostreatus, white rot, laccase, lignin biodegradation.
