Vegetative biomass contains a large number of macromolecular substances such as cellulose and hemicellulose, which can be used by microorganisms to produce biofuels and other chemical byproducts. In this study, a filamentous fungus with high β-glucosidase activity was isolated from mangrove soil in Hainan Province, China. Through morphological identification and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis, the strain was identified as Trichoderma reesei. Fermentation conditions were optimized with the response surface method to improve β-glucosidase...
