TL;DR: During the succession pH of the bagasse changed from acidic to neutral and finally became slightly alkaline, the moisture content gradually dropped and maximum temperature reached 50°C and pectin was utilized by all nine bagasse fungi while cellulose was utilization by all except R. microsporus and M. pusilius.
Abstract: Nine species of fungi were isolated from the fungal succession on bagasse; Rhizopus microsporus, Mucor pusilius, Aspergillus fumigatus, A. niger, A. terreus, A. flavus, Penicillium sp., Trichoderma longibrachiatum and an agaric. The commonest species were A. fumigatus and A. terreus which were present throughout the 20 weeks of study. Maximum colony counts were recorded during the sixth to the thirteenth weeks of the succession. During the succession pH of the bagasse changed from acidic to neutral and finally became slightly alkaline, the moisture content gradually dropped and maximum temperature reached 50°C. Pectin was utilized by all nine bagasse fungi while cellulose was utilized by all except R. microsporus and M. pusilius . Xylan was utilized by all excepting R. microsporus , while αconidendrin was utilized only by A. niger .
