Distinct wood degraders occupying their preferred habitats have biased enzyme repertoires that are well fitted to their colonized substrates.Pleurotus ostreatus, commonly found on wood, has evolved its own enzyme-producing traits. In our previous study, transcriptional shifts in severalP. ostreatusdelignification-defective mutants, including Δhir1and Δgat1strains, were analyzed, which revealed the downregulation of ligninolytic genes and the upregulation of cellulolytic and xylanolytic genes when compared to their parental strain 20b on beech wood sawdust medium (BWS). In this study, rice straw (RS) was used as an alternative substrate to examine the transcriptional responses ofP. ostreatusto distinct substrates. Thevp1gene and a cupredoxin-encoding gene were significantly upregulated in the 20b strain on RS compared with that on BWS, reflecting their distinct regulation patterns. The overall expression level of genes encoding glucuronidases was also higher on RS than on BWS, showing a good correlation with the substrate composition. Transcriptional alterations in the mutants (Δhir1or Δgat1versus 20b strain) on RS were similar to those on BWS, and the extracellular lignocellulose-degrading enzyme activities and lignin-degrading ability of the mutants on RS were consistent with the transcriptional alterations of the corresponding enzyme-encoding genes. However, transcripts of specific genes encoding enzymes belonging to the same CAZyme family exhibited distinct alteration patterns in the mutant strains grown on RS compared to those grown on BWS. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the transcriptional regulation of lignocellulolytic genes inP. ostreatus.Key Points•P. ostreatus expressed variable enzymatic repertoire-related genes in response to distinct substrates.•A demand to upregulate the cellulolytic genes seems to be present in ligninolysis-deficient mutants.•The regulation of some specific genes probably driven by the demand is dependent on the substrate.
