Abstract
Thermomyces lanuginosus CAU44, a newly isolated thermophilic fungus strain, was used for the production of extracellular xylanase on various lignocellulosic materials under shake flask conditions. High-level production of xylanase by the strain was enhanced by optimizing the type of carbon sources, substrate concentration, particle size and surfactants in the culture medium. The titre of xylanase activity obtained of up to 4156 U ml−1 was the highest ever reported.

Corncob-Induced endo-1,4-β-d-Xylanase of Aspergillus oryzae MTCC 5154: Production and Characterization of Xylobiose from Glucuronoxylan

TL;DR: Eight different fungi were cultivated in a peptone-yeast extract medium containing 1% oat spelt xylan to evaluate endo-1,4-beta-xylanase secretion for xylooligosaccharide (XOS) production to study the effect of OSX, BWX, and raw corncob on the induction of endoxylanase in A. oryzae.

Production of xylanase under solid-state fermentation by Aspergillus tubingensis JP-1 and its application

TL;DR: Among the various agro residues used wheat straw was found to be the best for high yield of xylanase with poor cellulase production, and Dilute alkali and acid-pretreated wheat straw yielded 688 and 543 mg/g reducing sugar, respectively.

Thermophilic Fungi: Their Physiology and Enzymes

TL;DR: This review, for the first time, compiles information on the physiology and enzymes of thermophilic fungi and indicates that eukaryotic thermophily involves several mechanisms of stabilization of enzymes or optimization of their activity, with different mechanisms operating for different enzymes.
