This study is to test the capacity of the white rot fungus Coriolopsis gallica for the biodegradation of Diesel Fuel hydrocarbons (DHs). Using the experimental face centered central composite design (FCCCD), culture conditions of the Diesel-mended medium were optimized to reach 110.43% of DHs removal rate, and l5267.35 U L(−1) of laccase production by C. gallica, simultaneously. The optimal combination of the cultural parameters was: Diesel concentration range of 2.95–3.14%, inoculum size of 3%, incubation time of 15 days, Tween 80 concentration of 0.05%, and the ratio glucose/peptone (G/P) range of 10.15–10.27. Further, the degradation ability of C. gallica for Diesel Fuel was evaluated through mycelial pellets uptake and oxidative action of fungal enzymes in the optimized degrading-medium using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Cyclosiloxanes and C20 PAHs detected as the major compound in Diesel Fuel (46%) was completely bio-transformed to simple metabolites including, essentially benzoic acid ester (71%), alcohols (1.52%) epoxy alkane (1.07%), carboxylic acids (1.24%) and quinones (0.33%). Germination rate and root elongation, as a rapid phytotoxicity test demonstrated that toxicity of Diesel’s PAHs is minimized by fungal treatment.
