The microbial pretreatment of corn stover and corn stover silage was achieved via the solid-state cultivation of Phanerochaete chrysosporium; pretreatment effects on the biodegradability and subsequent anaerobic production of biogas were investigated. The peak levels of daily biogas production and CH₄yield from corn stover silage were approximately twice that of corn stover. Results suggested that ensiling was a potential pretreatment method to stimulate biogas production from corn stover. Surface morphology and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy analyses demonstrated that the microbial pretreatment of corn stover silage improved biogas production by 10.5 to 19.7 % and CH₄yield by 11.7 to 21.2 % because pretreatment could decrease dry mass loss (14.2 %) and increase substrate biodegradability (19.9 % cellulose, 32.4 % hemicellulose, and 22.6 % lignin). By contrast, the higher dry mass loss in corn stover (55.3 %) after microbial pretreatment was accompanied by 54.7 % cellulose, 64.0 % hemicellulose, and 61.1 % lignin degradation but did not significantly influence biogas production.
