Pleurotus djamor var. roseus is an edible mushroom isolated from the wild and cultivated on paddy straw substrates. The present study was carried out to compare the nutritional composition and antioxidant properties of P. djamor var. roseus at different growth stages (primordia, basidiomata, and mycelia). The protein content was is in the range of 31.48 to 35.50 g/100g dw. The crude fiber content ranged from 8.0 to 14.60 g, and that of total carbohydrates ranged from 44.75 to 48.90 g. Sodium, magnesium, and calcium reached the maximum levels in basidiomata, and selenium was detected in basidiomata and mycelia (0.47 - 0.22 mg/Kg). The amino acid profile showed that all essential and nonessential amino acids and glycine showed maximum levels in basidiomata and 15.98 ± 0.01 g/100g. The fatty acid profile showed the presence of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids; the unsaturated fatty acid content was maximum in all of the samples, ranging from 76 – 40.41%. The total phenol and flavonoid contents as well as the scavenging (DPPH), ferric thiocyanate (FTC), and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) activities in the context of methanol and water extracts from primordia, basidiomata, and mycelium were determined. Among them, basidiomata and mycelial methanol extracts exhibited significant antioxidant activity. Overall, these findings show that P. djamor var. roseus can be used as a functional food for daily consumption.

느타리버섯의 품종 다양화를 위해 단핵균주교잡에 의해 육성된 적단느타리버섯의 주요특성은 다음과 같다. 가. 균사생장적온은 26∼30℃이고 버섯발생 및 생육온도는 18∼23℃이었다. 나. 갓의 형태는 깊은깔대기형이며 다발형이고, 대는 가늘고 짧은형이며 갓, 대 모두 분홍색을 나타내었다. 다. 병재배시 배양일수는 20℃에서 20일, 초발이소요일수는 18∼20℃재배조건에서 4일이며 생육일수는 4일이 소요되었다. 봉지재배에서는 균배양일수는 22일, 초발이 소요일수는 6일, 생육일수는 5일정도 소요되었다. 라. 버섯의 균일성에 있어서 갓색과 갓형태의 이형개체 발생은 없었고, 균사생장량 및 종균배양기간에서도 지역간 균일한 결과를 나타내었다. 마. 농가실증시험 결과 유효개체수는 850cc병재배시는 31.5개이며, 2kg 봉지재배시 47개체수를 얻었으며 수량은 병재배시 134.5g, 봉지재배시 350.0g의 수량을 얻었다.
