In this study, we made population with high biological efficiency to investigate the complex genetic architecture of yield-related traits in A. bisporus. MB013 that crossed with bisp 15-p2 and bisp 34-p2 had high biological efficiency. 170 homokaryons was isolated with CAPS marker (PIN primer/HaeⅢ) from 1000 ISSs. And 100 BC1F1 hybrids obtained by crossing the homokaryons of MB013 with bisp15-p1. Parental line bisp 15-p2 and bisp 34-p2 and 100 homokaryons of MB013 will analyze genome sequencing. Also 100 BC1F1 hybrids will evaluate yield-related traits.

Oyster mushrooms are widely cultivated and consumed in Korea. P. ostreatus 'Suhan(ASI 2504)' is an ideal cultivar for mushroom farmers due to its dark pileus and thick stipe; however, as it is very sensitive to environmental conditions, an alternative cultivar is required. To develop a new cultivar, parental strains 'Suhan(ASI 2504)' and ‘ASI 0665 (Heuktari)’ were selected from various collected strains according to morphological characteristics. P. ostreatus ‘Soltari’ was developed by Di- Mon crossing between the dikaryotic strain ‘Suhan’ and the monokaryotic strain derived from ‘Heuktari’. Thirty-eight of the 100 crossed strains were selected following analysis of mitochondrial genetic characteristics, and 'Soltari' was ultimately selected by continuous cultivation tests. The mitochondrial DNA profile of ‘Soltari’ was found to be the same as that of ‘Heuktari, and a nuclear DNA profile of ‘Soltari’ was similar as those of the parental strains, ‘Suhan’ and ‘Heuktari.’ 'Soltari' mycelium grows adequately in moderate to high temperatures of 12–20oC, although its optimum temperature was found to be 30oC. Fruiting body production per 1.1-L cultivation bottle was approximately 158.8 g. Its stipe length and thickness were comparable to those of diameter and thickness were somewhat lower (42.72 vs. 51.33 mm and 18.18 vs. 22.46 mm, respectively). ‘Soltari’ was found to be more resistant to high CO2 atmosphere than 'Suhan', and the color of the pileus of 'Soltari' was dark gray at high temperature. Therefore, it is suggested that this new cultivar ‘Soltari’ is a good alternative cultivar and will contribute to energy saving in oyster mushroom farms.

The production scale of mushrooms in Korea is approximately 600 billion won, which is 1.6% of Korea’s gross agricultural output. In Korea, ca. 190,000 tons of mushrooms are harvested annually. Although the numbers of mushroom farms and cultivators are constantly decreasing, total mushroom yields are increasing owing to large-scale cultivation facilities and automation. The recent expansion of the well-being trend has caused an increase in mushroom consumption in Korea: the annual per capita mushroom was 3.9 kg (’13), whichis a little higher than that in Europe. Thus, mushroom export, mainly Flammulina velutipes and Pleurotus ostreatus, has increased since the mid-2000s. Recently, however, it is slightly reduced. Nevertheless, Vietnam, Hong Kong, the United States, and the Netherlands continue to export mushrooms, and Korea has increased its export to Australia, Canada, Southeast Asia, etc. Canned Agaricus bisporus, the first export of the Korean mushroom industry, reached it speak sales in 1977-1978. When Korea initiated trade with China in 1980, the international prices of mushrooms fell sharply, leading to shrinkage of the domestic markets. Spurred by the high demand to develop substitute goods for A. bisporus, the oyster mushroom (P. ostreatus) gained attention since it seemed to suit the taste of Korean consumers. Although the log cultivation technique for oyster mushroom was developed in the early 1970s, it required a great deal of labor. Thus, we developed the shelf cultivation technique, which is easier to manage and allows for mass production. In this technique, the growing shelf is made mafrom fermented rice straw, whichis the only P. ostreatus medium in the world and isused only in South Korea. After then, the use of cotton wastes as an additional material of medium, the productivity. Currently, we are developing a standard cultivation technique and environmental control system that can stably produce mushrooms throughout the year. The increase of oyster mushroom production may boostthe domestic market and contribute to industrial development. In addition, oyster mushroom production technology played a role in forming the basis for the development of bottle cultivation, which made mass production . In particular, bottle cultivation using liquid spawn could allow for the export of F. velutipes and Pleurotus eryngii. In addition, the white varieties of F. velutipes were second developed in the world after Japan. We also developed the new A. bisporus cultivar ‘Saeah’, which is easy to grow in Korea. In hopes to advance the mushroom industry, we will continue to develop cultivars with international competitive power and to improve cultivation techniques.

Since the first Korean button mushroom ‘Sae-Ah’ developed in 2010, most farmers had wanted to cultivate a new variety. A new variety, ‘SaeJeong’, was developed in 2011, but this variety was difficult to cultivate in mushroom farm. To solve the variety problem, a new variety ‘Sae-do’ was developed in 2012. The variety, ‘Sad-do’, was made by crossing hetrokaryon A175 and homokaryon ASI1346-15 selected by genetic analysis. The heterokaryon A175 is crossed line between ASI1038-211 and ASI1346-20. The mycelium of ‘Saedo’ on CDA (compost dextrose agar) grew well at 25°C. The optimum pin-heading temperature of it was 13-15°C and optimum growing temperature was 13-20°C. Earliness (days required from casing to first harvesting) was 2 days shorter than control ‘Saejeong’. Even though the diameter of mature cap and the length of stipe were shorter than a control, the individual weight of fruiting body was heavier because of thick pileus and stipe. Therefore, the yield was increased by 1.89 times than control and the hardness of pileus was stronger. The field experiment of ‘Saedo’ variety has been started since 2013. Most farmers evaluated that the variety has good compost colonization and cap shape, and high yield in harvesting. For that reason, ‘Saedo’ has occupied half of the of distribution rate of Korean varieties. Also distribution rate of Korean varieties was increased from 26.1% in 2014 to 37% in 2015.

The aim of this study was to analyze the genetic diversity of collected strains of Hypsizygus marmoreus based on their rDNA ITS sequences. The size of ITS rDNA regions of H. marmoreus strains, collected form various regions. A phylogenetic trees based on the ITS region revealed that the strains could be classified into 4 different groups including Villosiclava virens, Hypsizygus marmoreus, Lepista irina, Lyophyllum Decastes, Lyophyllum shimeji, Pleurotus floridanus.

Hypsizigus marmoreus is commercially the most important edible mushroom in Japan. This mushroom is usually cultivatedfor a longer period (about 85~120 days) than other mushroom. In order to develop a new cultivar that has a shortened cultivationperiod, the genome analysis of this strain has been considered. This study aims to obtain parental monokaryotic strains reproducing‘Haemi’ cultivar in Hypsizigus marmoreus for reference genome sequencing. The mycelia were cultured in MCM and MYG media forvarious incubation periods. Homogenized mycelia were treated with commercial cell wall degrading enzymes to maximize protoplastsproduction yield from Hypsizigus marmoreus. The greatest number of protoplasts was obtained from mycelia cultured in MCM mediafor 3 days using Novozyme enzyme. The isolated protoplasts were grown in regeneration agar media after two weeks. Regeneratedcolonies were picked and moved on separated dishes for microscopic observation. Neohaplonts regenerated from dikayotic strainswere identified by the absence of clamp connections. We confirmed that one of monokaryotic strains is a parental strain by crossingwith an original compatible strain of ‘Haemi’ cultivar. This parental strain will be used for reference genome sequence analysis.

Agaricus bitorquis is an edible white mushroom of the genus that is cultivated at high temperature(25±1oC) unlikeA. bisporus is cultivate at 16±2oC. Unlike Agaricus bisporus, an edible white A. bitorquis mushroom is cultivated at hightemperature (25±1oC). Most farmers cultivate this mushroom for a long cultivation period in Korea. For this reason, we madeheterokayons to develop a new cultivar that generate fruitbodies for short cultivation period. Over one hundred SSIs(singlespores isolates) were collected from selected A. bitorquis ASI1151 and ASI1349 strains. Seventy-three SSIs were germinated onCDA(compost dextrose agar) media after 20 days (minimum) or 83 days (maximum) incubation under different mediacondition. The mycelial growth rate of germinated SSIs was different. 9 homokaryons in ASI 1151 and 11 homokaryons in ASI1349 from SSIs were selected by OPN-02 primer in RAPD analaysis. Also this primer was used to select heterokaryon thatcross among each homokaryon with compatible locus. Therefore 44 compatible matings were confirmed of 99 crossed lines.

A new brown button mushroom cultivar, ‘Hogam’, C34 line, was made by crossing homokaryons, ASI1164-37 andASI1175-66, selected by RAPD analysis and by cultivating three times. Mycelium of ‘Hogam’ on CDA (compost dextrose agar)media grew well at 25oC. The optimum pin-heading temperature of new variety and optimum growing temperature was 14-18oC. The thickness of the mature cap and stipe were thicker than a control, ‘Dahyang’ that developed in 2010. The color ofpileus was light brown and lighter than ‘Dahyang’. Days required from casing to first harvesting were three days longer thancontrol strain, but the weight of harvested fruiting body increased by 1.35 times. ‘Hogam‘ cultivar are expected to contribute tothe diversification of domestic mushroom cultivars.

This study was conducted to obtain a growth correlation of basal information from the development of disease resistantFlammulina velutipes cultivars through back-crossing between the strains of wild-type brown monokaryon 4019-20 and thederivative of commercial quality white monokaryons 3. The two strains were selected to back-cross for further enhancing their latentattributes and growth characteristics. The parents of 4019-20×M3 back-crossed to reproduce F1, M3-Sn. Using F1, M3-Sn procuredand isolated into 94 monokaryon strains. Further examination of growth characteristics carried out by back-crossing between M3and BC1F1 from M3-n dikaryon. Monokaryon exhibited an irregular growth pattern and demonstrated to be sluggish development inthe sawdust medium. However BC1F1(M3-n) dikaryon strains confirmed mostly regular growth pattern and demonstrated ordinarygrowth in the sawdust medium. The fruitbody of BC1F1 confirmed as light-brown colour to be the dominant gene. The colourdistributions of fruitbody, BC1F1, resulted as follows; 7% of dark brown, 25% of brown , 27% of light brown, 16% of ivory and 25%of white. The ratio of the other color to white showed 3 to 1 which suggested two major genes were related to fruitbody color.

A new commercial strain “Mongdol” of oyster mushroom was developed by hyphal anastomosis. It was improvedwith hybridization between monokaryotic strain derived from Pleurotus ostreatus ASI 0627 and dikaryotic strain derived from P.ostreatus ASI 2929. The optimum temperature of mycelial growth and fruiting body development were 25~30oC and 12~18oC,respectively. When two different media including PDA (potato dextrose agar medium) and MCM (mushroom complete medium)were compared, the mycelial growth of this mushroom was faster in MCM than in PDA. Similar result was observed with thecontrol strain P. ostreatus ASI 2504. Analysis of the genetic characteristics of the new cultivar “Mongdol” showed a different DNAprofile as that of the control strain ASI 2504, when RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) primer URP3 and URP6 wereused. Fruiting body production per bottle was about 106 g using demonstration farms. The color of pileus was blackish gray andthe stipe was long. Therefore, we expect that this new strain “Mongdol” will satisfy the consumer’s demand for high qualitymushrooms.

‘Baekjung’ adaptable to high temperature was made by crossing between monokaryon derived from selfing of brownstrain and monokaryon derived from Korea white strain. In the condition that temperature is maintained at 10oC without lowtemperature of 4oC suppressing treatment and wrapping during cultivation period, it showed good productivity thanUri1ho(control). The optimum temperature of mycelial growth was 30oC and that of fruiting body initiation and developmentwere 14oC and 7oC, respectively. The days for the fruiting and yield were 7days and 277±11.2g per 1,100ml bottle,respectively. This variety needed high concentration of carbon dioxide up to 4,000 ppm for the good quality.

느타리버섯(Pleurotus ostreatus)의 품종 육성을 위해서는 많은 노력과 시간을 필요로 하고 있어, 최근에는 분자육종방법으로 마커를 이용하여 빠르고 정확하게 교잡주를 선발하고 있다. 본 실험에서는 육종효율을 증진하기 위해 교잡효율이 높은 Di-Mon 교배방법으로 부친의 핵과 모친의 미토콘드리아를 가진 세포질전환 교잡주를 선발하였다. 느타리버섯 수한3호와 흑변이체의 교잡종인 ‘다굴’의 이핵균주에 춘추2호의 단핵균주와 교잡하여 120여개의 교잡주를 얻고 여기에 1차로 미토콘드리아 microsatellite DNA 마커 (MtPO1)를 이용하여 단핵균주 춘추2호의 미토콘드리아 밴드를 형성하는 교잡주 80개를 1차 선발하였다. 선발된 80균주중에서 URP 프라이머를 이용하여 ‘다굴’의 2핵균주 핵 DNA 패턴을 가진 26교잡주를 선발하였다. 이 중에서 수량성이 우수한 3개 교잡주의 자실체 특성을 조사한 결과 초발이일수가 2일이나 빠르면서 수량성이 좋은 품종을 선발하여 ‘천화심’이라 명명하였다. 천화심은 수량이 높으면서 여름에도 재배가 가능해 춘추2호의 약점을 보완함으로써 춘추대체품종으로도 재배가 가능하리라 본다.

수집된 주름버섯류의 233점의 phylogenic relationship 을 분류하고 자실체형태를 조사하였다. 리보좀 DNA의 ITS 부분의 염기서열을 분석을 통해 38점이 다르게 동정 되었다. 수집된 주름버섯의 계통수에서는 양송이와 여름 양송이가 group A 내에서 주름버섯은 group B에서 가까 운 유연관계를 보였다. 또한 수집된 국가별 및 양송이내 갓색에 따른 유연관계가 있는 지 알아보았으나, 그 차이 는 없었다. 수집된 주름버섯류의 자실체 특성을 조사하기 위해 1차, 2차 두 번 재배를 하였다. 이 결과로 주름버섯 류 수집균주의 재배의 유무를 알 수 있었고, 버섯 종류와 시기에 따른 수확량 및 자실체의 특성을 비교를 통해 주 름버섯이 2차 재배시 수확량 및 경도에서 우수한 특성을 보이며, 양송이 중에는 비백색양송이가 단단하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 여름양송이의 초발이 소요일수와 갈 색양송이의 갓 색이 외부환경에 영향을 받는 다는 것을 보여주었다.

The white button mushroom, Agaricus biporus is commercially the fifth important edible mushroom, accounting for a Korean production of 10,996 tons in Korea, 2012. The button mushroom, A. bisporus, mostly cultivated at mushroom farm controlled 16-19°C temperature during fruiting period in all seasons. For this reason, the production costs including the cost of energy, is very expensive to keep optimal culturing temperature. In this study, mycelial growth of strains collected from various countries was investigated at different cultivation temperature conditions to use baseline data for developing thermo-tolerance varieties. Mycelial growth was recorded strains cultivated in CDA (Compost Dextrose Agar) after two weeks. 12 strains among total 264 strains were cultivated well in high temperature. These strains will be cultivated in high temperature to confirm relationships between mycelial growth and fruit-body formation in same conditions.

A total of 25 strains of Flammulina velutipes were analyzed to identify the genomic regions responsible for producing white-fruiting body. NGS data was yielded by using Illumina Hiseq platform. Short reads were filtered by quality score and read length were mapped on the reference genome (KACC42780). Between the white- and brown fruitbody forming strains, we found 9376 SNPs, of which 8178 were non-polymorphic and 1198 were polymorphic. There is a high possibility that SNPs can be detected among the white strains as homozygous because white phenotype is recessive in F. velutipes. Thus, we constructed SNP matrix within 8 white strains. SNPs discovered between mono3 and mono19, the parental monokaryotic strains of 4120 strain (white), were excluded from the candidate. If the genotypes of SNPs detected between white and brown strains were identical with those in mono3 and mono19 strains, they were included in candidate as a priority. As a result, if more than 5 candidates SNPs were localized in single gene, we regarded as they are possibly related to the white color. In F. velutipes genome, chr08: 950kb-2650kb, chr09: 500kb-1400kb, chr09: 2800kb-4350kb, and chr11: 2450kb-3500kb regions were identified to be associated with white fruitbody forming.

Twenty Inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and 30 SSR primers were used to assess genetic diversity of 64 Agaricus strains including 45 A. bisporus strains and other 19 Agaricus spp. Of them, four ISSR primers, (GA)₈T, (AG)₈YC, (GA)₈C and (CTC)₆and seven SSR markers produced PCR polymorphic bands between the Agaricus species or within A. bisporus strains. PCR polymorphic bands were inputted for UPGMA cluster analysis. Forty five strains of A. bisporus are genetically clustered into 6 groups, showing coefficient similarity from 0.75 to 0.9 among them. The varieties, Saea, saedo, Saejeong and Saeyeon that have recently been developed in Korea were involved in the same group with closely genetic relationship of coefficient similarity over 0.96, whereas, other strains were genetically related to A. bisporus strains that were introduced from USA, Eroupe and Chinese.

양송이버섯의 쉬운 변질에 따른 소비자 및 유통업체들의 피해를 예방하기위해 저장성이 증진된 품종을 개발하고자 현재 육성된 품종들의 수확시기, 저장온도 및 저장기간에 따른 저장성 정도를 파악하였다.1·2주기동안 수확한 양송이를 35일 동안 4, 7, 10oC에 저장한 결과 전반적으로 중량은 감소하는 경향을보였고, 자실체 대의 두께는 감소하였으며, 길이는증가하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 생육주기별로 보면 대의 두께와 길이가 1주기보다 2주기에 변화가 적은양상을 보였고, 온도별로 대의 두께와 길이는 온도가낮을수록 변화가 많이 나타났다. E(표면색도)의 변화는 1주기보다 2주기에 수확한 것이 갓과 대의 색도변화가 많았다. 또한 백색품종은 10oC에서 E 값의 차이가 크게 나타나 높은 온도에서 표면의 갓 및대의 색이 변화가 심하다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, ‘다향’은 낮은 온도에서 변화가 컸다. 부위별로 보면 갓부위에서 갈색품종이 백색품종보다 색의 변화가 적었다. L값(명도)는 E 값과 생육주기 및 온도별 변화가 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 명도에 따른 저장기간을보면 1·2주기 수확한 양송이 중 백색품종은 1주일정도 저장할 수 있었고, ‘새도’품종이 수확 후 L값이큰 것으로 보아 가장 좋은 상태로 수확된다는 것을알 수 있었다. 품종별로 보면 ‘설강’품종의 L값이 저장기간 14일까지 좋은 상태로 유지되었지만, 28일이지나면 급속도로 L값이 낮아지는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 그에 비해 ‘새정’품종은 모든 온도에서 35일까지 L값이 서서히 감소되는 것을 볼 수 있었다(Table 2).평균적으로 형태적인 변화를 보면 ‘설강’ 품종이 대의 굵기는 변화가 적은 반면에 길이 변화가 컸고,‘505’품종이 저장함에 따라 길이변화가 적었다. 표면색도변화는 갓 부위에서는 갈색양송인 ‘다향’이 가장변화가 적었고, 백색양송이 중에는 ‘새정’품종이 변화가 적었으며, ‘505’가 가장 변화가 심했다. 대 부위에서는 ‘새아’품종이 변화도가 적었으며 ‘새도’품종이 가장 변화가 많았다. 양송이 선택시 갓의 색을 보는 경우가 많으므로 이 결과 도출로 ‘새정’품종이 유통과정 중 35일간 저장성 면에서 우수한 품질을 유지할 수 있다고 볼 수 있다.
