β¦ Synopsis
Thirteen thermohilic genera and 19 species in addition to one variety of each ofM. pulchella and H.gr&ea were collected from wheat and broad-bean straw composts at 45 ~ In wheat and broad-bean, all thermophilic fungi were completely checked between 4-9 days, and 1-8 days composting when the temperature ranged between 58 ~ and 67 ~ C, and 58 ~ and 70 ~ C respectively, and reappeared, represented by P. duponti, M. albomyces, T. lanuginosus and S. thermophile, after 9 or l0 days composting when the temperature decreased to 51.5~ ~ Wheat and broad-bean straw composts were analyzed biochemically to follow the changes in ethanol and diastase soluble, hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin fractions during composting.
