Abstract: In this study, five fungal strains (Aspergillus niger SCBM1 – Ni, Aspergillus fumigatus SCBM6 – Fu, Trametes versicolor 561 – Tr, Ganoderma lucidum 601 – Ga and Pleurotus ostreatus PL06 – Pl) were cultivated individually and in consortium for biosynthesis of lignocellulose-degrading enzymes by solid-state fermentation (SSF). The enzyme production was investigated using a 25−1 fractional factorial design, with a total of 16 experiments (F1–F16) using raw sugarcane bagasse and raw wheat bran as substrates. Among the enzymatic extracts produced, Ni (F1) exhibited the highest production of endoglucanase (82.70 U/gds) (units per gram of dry substrate), exoglucanase (80.48 U/gds), β-xylosidase (145.01 U/gds) and manganese peroxidase (3.38 U/gds). For filter paper cellulase, Tr cocktail (F5) was the one that stood out (9.45 U/gds). Among the extracts produced in consortium, Ni + Tr + Pl (F6) presented the highest production of β-glucosidase (171.09 U/gds), β-xylosidase (139.99 U/gds) and manganese peroxidase (3.29 U/gds). For FPase, Ni + Fu + Ga (F12) exhibited the best production (10.46 U/gds). The highest xylanase biosynthesis (2582.38 U/gds) was obtained in Ni + Fu + Pl extract (F4). For laccase, the maximum biosynthesis (25.27 U/gds) was obtained in Tr + Ga + Pl (F13). The cocktails that presented the best enzyme production were: Ni (F1), Ni + Fu + Pl (F9), Ni + Tr + Pl (F6) and Ni + Ga + Pl (F10), demonstrating that the use of microbial consortium can be a promising alternative to obtain enzymatic cocktails with high synergism.
