Wood rotting fungi adapt their metabolic phenomena in response to the ecological changes, a meticulous standardization and characterization of growing conditions is essential to achieve meaningful and productive outcomes. The present study focuses on the impact of various physiological factors, including media, temperature, pH, and carbon and nitrogen sources, on the growth of Bjerkandera adusta and Fomitopsis meliae. Utilizing these factors, the research establishes optimal conditions and investigates the maximum and minimum limits of ligninolytic enzyme secretion in diverse environmental settings. Results indicate that both fungal strains exhibit exceptional growth in glucose and peptone media at a temperature of 28 C. The ideal pH conditions for Bjerkandera adusta and Fomitopsis meliae are identified as 5 and 6, respectively. Furthermore, both strains demonstrate outstanding extracellular enzymatic activity, particularly in laccase, lignin peroxidase, and manganese peroxidase. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how wood rotting fungi adapt to their environment and underscore the importance of precise cultivation conditions for meaningful and productive research outcomes.
