버섯생산성 향상을 위해서는 주년재배체계가 확립되어야 하는데 여름철 재배가 가능한 중고온성 봉지재배용 고품질버섯‘곤지5호’ 의 주요특성은 다음과 같다. ‘곤지5호’는 균사생장적온은 26~29℃이고 버섯발생 및 생육온도는 18~20℃로 중고온성을 나타내었다. 갓색은 20℃재배시 회색(색차값(L)=56.0)이고 얕은 깔대기형이며 다발형으로 발생하였다. 또한, 대는 회백색이고 굵고 긴형태를 나타내었으며 ‘수한1호’에 비해 탄력성이 우수하였다. 봉지재배시 20℃에서 초발이 소요일수는 3일, 자실체 생육일수는 4일이었다. 수량은 생산력검정시 1kg 봉지에서 221.4g을 나타내어 ‘수한1호’ 201.0g에 비해 10% 증수효과가 있었다. 또한, 농가실증재배시 Farm 1 과 Farm 3 지역에서는 대조구인 ‘수한1호’ 217g/1kg봉지 대비 13% 증수효과가 있었으며, Farm 2지역에서는 ‘부평33호’의 230.8g/1kg봉지 와 비슷하였다. DNA다형성을 비교 분석한 결과 URP-2F, URP-2R, URP-25F등의 모든 primer에서 모본과 다른 밴드양상을 나타내어 품종간의 구분이 확실하였고, 교잡모본과 혼합된 밴드양상을 나타내었다.
‘Gonji-5ho’, a new variety of oyster mushroom, for the bag culture, was bred by mating two monokaryons isolated from ‘Chiak-3ho’and ‘Suhan-1ho’. In the characteristics of fruit body, pilei were thick and gray and stipes were thick, and long, and soft. It was better in elasticity and cohesivness of tissue compared to Suhan-1ho. Compared to other varieties, it was suitable to grow at higher temperature. The range of optimum temperature for the mycelial growth was around 26~29 and that for the pinheading and growth of fruit body was around 18~20℃. But when it was cultuered in lower than 15℃, growth was not uniform, culture period was longer, and stipes were uneven. In the bag culture, it was required around 18 days in incubation period and 3 days in primordia formation. The fruit body growth was vital and uniform. The yield was 221.4g/1kg bag.
