Magnesite driven the complementary effects of core fungi by optimizing the physicochemical parameters in pig manure...

The effects of magnesite (MS) on fungi communities and the core fungi complementarity during pig manure (PM) composting were explored. Different dosage of MS [0% (T1), 2.5% (T2), 5% (T3), 7.5% (T4) and 10% (T5)] as amendments mixed with PM for 42 days composting. The results showed the dominant of phyla were Ascomycota (78.87%), Neocallimastigomycota (41.40%), Basidiomycota (30.81%) and Aphelidiomycota (29.44%). From day 7 to 42, the abundance of Ascomycota and Aphelidiomycota were increased from 7.75% to 42.41% to 57.27%-78.87% and 0-0.70% to 11.73%-29.44% among all treatments. Nevertheless, the phyla abundance of Neocallimastigomycota and Basidiomycota decreased from day 7 to 42. The co-occurrence network indicated that the high additive amendment could enhance the core fungi complementarity effects capacity. The 10% MS addition was a promisable candidate to optimum fungal communities, and causing a better compost quality. This study illustrated the potential and fungi communities changing of MS as additives in composting.
