  abstract = {{T}he main purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of an initial aeration rate on the sporulation of six {T}richoderma strains under solid state fermentation conditions and to evaluate the behavior of the lytic enzymes involved in the process at laboratory scale. {A} mixture of sugarcane bagasse, wheat bran, chitin, potato flour and olive oil were used as a substrate. {C}ultures were carried out using glass columns applying an initial aeration rate of 50 ml min(-1) (2 m{L} min(-1)g(-1)). {U}nder the present culture conditions, chitinase and amylase activities were enhanced by the aeration with values of 30.74 and 44.54 {U} g(-1) with {T}. longibranchiatum. {T}hese vales represent an increase of 226 and 167%, respectively compared with the system without air supply. {F}or most of the strains, the forced aeration increased the endoglucanase activity, but the best value was observed with {T}. yunnanense (38.32 {U} g(-1)). {A}ll strains showed low values of exoglucanase and lipase when the aeration was applied. {T}richoderma spp. was the strain most affected negatively by the aerated process, showing the lowest enzyme activities. {T}he forced air supply into solid-state fermentation did not improve the production of spores from {T}richoderma since similar results were obtained in the process without forced aeration. {O}n this report, we reach concentrations greater than 1 x 10(9) spores per gram of substrate at 96-120 h of culture, indicating a feasible approach of agro-industrial wastes as a substrate for the biomass production.},
