Mushroom is cultivated as one of the major economical crops in many areas in Korea. The total production has steadily increased from approximately 186,400 M/T in 2007 to 190,104 M/T in 2011. This study was carried out to investigated optimum mixing ratio of Korean natural Juglans mandshurica for production of functional oyster mushroom. Mycelial growth of Pleurotus ostreatus showed the highest growth at the media of 20% Juglans mandshurica after culture of 34 days. But mushroom mycelial growth at Juglans mandshurica media was slower than that of the control. Total nitrogen and carbon source of Juglans mandshurica was 0.21% and 46.0%, respectively and C/N ratio was 219. Total nitrogen source and pH of substrates mixed with Juglans mandshurica were 2.8∼2.9 and 5.0, respectively. The contents of P2O5,, CaO, MgO and Na2O were no significant difference. The contents of Fe and Mn were decreased according to increasing of Juglans mandshurica, but the contents of Zn was increased. Yields and valid stipe number of fruiting body was the highest at 10% Juglans mandshurica, and diameter and thick of pileus were no significant difference to increase of Juglans mandshurica addition ratio. The L value of pileus was the highest at the 20% Juglans mandshurica during mushroom harvest, but there was no significant difference in the a-value and the b-value. Chemical contents of fruiting body were no significant difference.

Mushroom is cultivated as one of the major economical crops in many areas in Korea. The total production has steadily increased from approximately 186,400 M/T in 2007 to 190,104 M/T in 2009. The oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus, showed the 2th production to 46,598 M/T in 2011. This study was carried out to investigated optimum mixing ratio of Korean natural Acer tegmentosum for production of functional oyster mushroom. Mycelial growth of Pleurotus ostreatus showed the highest growth at the media of 10% Acer tegmentosum and was decreased to increase of Acer tegmentosum addition ratio. But mushroom mycelial growth at Acer tegmentosum media was slower than that of the control. Total nitrogen and carbon source of Acer tegmentosum was 0.19% and 44.4%, respectively and C/N ratio was 234. Total nitrogen source and pH of substrates mixed with Acer tegmentosum were 2.7∼3.0 and 4.8∼5.0, respectively. The contents of P2O5 and K2O were decreased by increasing Acer tegmentosum but the contents of CaO, MgO and Na2O were no significant difference. The contents of Fe and Mn were decreased according to increasing of Acer tegmentosum, but the contents of Zn and Mn were no significant difference. Yields of fruiting body and diameter and thick of pileus were the highest at 10% Acer tegmentosum. The L value of pileus was the highest at the 30% Acer tegmentosum during mushroom harvest, but there was no significant difference in the a-value and the b-value. The contents of P2O5,, CaO, MgO and Na2O of fruiting body were no significant difference, but contents of Cu was decreased and Fe was increased according to increasing of Acer tegmentosum.

Mushroom is cultivated as one of the major economical crops in many areas of the Korea. The total production have steadily increased approximately 151,913 M/T in 2000 to 186,400 M/T in 2007. This study was carried out to investigate applicability of mushroom production using various organic media resources within the country. Eight organic resources were collected from various areas. Pleurotus ostreatus and Fulammulina velutipes showed the highest growth at the media of 10% red ginseng marc, 20% lacquer tree, 20% Juglans mandshurica, 10% Cudrania tricuspidata, 10~20% Acer pensylvanicum, 10% Lindera glauca. Mushroom mycelial growth at red ginseng marc media was slower than that of the control. But the sponin of the red ginseng was not detected at the fruiting body grown from red ginseng marc media, And three organic resources(barly powder, sweet potato powder, potato powder) was used to substitute rice bran used in mushroom cultivation. Pleurotus ostreatus and Fulammulina velutipes showed the highest growth at 10~30% sweet potato powder, 20% barly powder and 10% potato powder.
