This study was conducted to establish an appropriate period of use of sawdust spawn at low temperatures and a nutrient supplement medium for cultivation of Lentinula edodes ‘Hwadam’. Of the nutrient supplements, the total yield of rice bran (5%) + corn flour (5%) treatments were 673.3 g, which was higher than rice bran (551.6 g) and wheat bran (546.7 g) treatments, respectively. As shown by the growth of Lentinula edodes ‘hwadam' during to the sawdust spawn storage period (at 4oC), the period of spawn running, browning, fruiting body formation, and development was 27 d, 81 d, 5 d, and 11-13 d, respectively, regardless of the length of the storage period at 4 oC. After 3 months of storage of sawdust spawn, the number of fruiting bodies and yield decreased as the storage period increased. Therefore, the period of use of sawdust spawn (at 4 oC) for the stable production of fruiting bodies of Lentinula edodes ‘Hwadam’ was a maximum of 3 months.

느타리 종균배지재료인 미송톱밥과 미강을 대체할 수 있는 재료를 선발하기 위하여 실시하였다. 톱밥의 pH는 4.9~6.1, 총질소함량은 0.21~0.26%, 총탄소함량은 49.0~50.2%를 나타내며 조지방은 0.3~0.7%를 함유하고 있다. 종균 혼합배지의 pH는 5.3~5.9, 총질소함량은 0.65~1.11%, 총탄소함량은 47.0~49.1%를 나타내었다. C/N율은 총질소 함량이 낮은 미루나무톱밥 혼합배지에서 높게 나타났으며, 단백질 함량은 미송톱밥이 함유되어 있는 배지에서 높게 나타났다. 느타리 균사생장은 미강보다 밀기울이 포함되어 있는 배지에서 균 사생장 속도가 빨랐다. 수량은‘곤지7호’, ‘춘추2호’, ‘흑타리’, ‘수한1호’ 순으로 높았으며, T4(미루나무톱밥:참나무톱 밥:미강) 배지에서 가장 높은 생산성을 나타내었으나 처리 간 유의성이 없었다. 느타리 농가에서는 자가종균 제조 시 주변에서 손쉽게 구할 수 있는 미루나무톱밥, 참나무톱밥을 단용 및 혼용으로 이용할 수 있으며, 보관중에 품질유지가 어려운 미강 대신에 밀기울을 사용하여 종균을 제조할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to investigate the management characteristics and growth performance of L. edodes from the cooling stage to incubation. Bags of different heights and weights are available for bagging. When the medium size of 17x13 cm was used and the size of the inoculation hole was changed from 1/3 to 2/3, the browning period was shortened to 30 days. Mycelial growth was evaluated according to the cooling temperature after sterilization. It was observed to be the highest at 122 mm/15 days at 10 °C and 114 mm/15 days and 117 mm/15 days at 15 °C and 20 °C, respectively. The contamination rate of the sawdust media before inoculation was measured as 0, 4.5x10, 1.3x102, 4.0x103 cfu at 5 °C, 10 °C, 15 °C, and 24 °C respectively. The average of 1.6x108 colony forming units (cfu) of microorganisms was observed in the sawdust that had been piled for six months outdoors. In summer, the sawdust has to be used immediately after mixing. The sterilized medium had an average of 4x103 cfu of microorganisms at 24 °C and 1.3×102 cfu at 15 °C. After 15 days of inoculation in vitro, the growth conditions of the sawdust was the best at 132 mm, followed by grain and liquid. When inoculated with liquid spawn, the moisture content of the substrate should be adjusted between 50% and 55% in advance.

To minimize cultivation costs, prevent insect-pest infestation, and improve the production efficiency of thermophilic mushrooms, plant substrates obtainedfrom local areas in Cambodia were used for production of both spawn and mushrooms. In this experiment, different sawdusts different organic wastes and grain ingredients and analyzed for improvement of spawnproduction efficiency. Four thermophilic mushroom species, Pleurotus sajor-caju (oyster mushroom, Sambok), Ganoderma lucidum (deer horn shaped), Auricularia auricula (ear mushroom), and Lentinula edodes (shiitake), were used to identify efficient new substrates for spawn and mushroom production. Although the mycelia in the rubber tree sawdust medium showed a slightly slower growth rate (10.9 cm/15 days) than mycelia grown in grains (11.2 cm/15 days in rice seeds), rubber tree sawdust appeared to be an adequate replacement for grain spawn substrates. Th findings indicate that rubber tree sawdust, sugarcane bagasse, and acaciatree sawdust supplemented with rice bran and calcium carbonate could be new alternative the substrates for . Although sugarcane bagasse and rubber tree sawdust showed similarly high biological efficiencies (BE) of 60% and 60.8%, respectively, acacia tree sawdust exhibited relatively a low biological efficiency of 22.4%. However, it is expected that acacia sawdust has potential for the mushroom cultivation when supplemented with currently used sawdust substrates in Cambodia, because of its relatively low price. The price of the sawdust (20 kg sawdust= 6500 Riel or 1.6 USD) currently used was 6.5 times higher than the price of acacia sawdust (201000 Riel or 0.25 )USD). Therefore, utilization for acacia sawdust for mushroom cultivation could become feasible as it would reduce by producing costs of mushrooms in rural areas of Cambodia.

종균의 종류에 따라 중온성 품종의 생산성이 어떻게 달라지는지를 확인하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 버섯의 발생 경향은 세 처리구 모두 비슷했으며, 성형종균과 액체종균 처리구는 2차발생까지 총수확량의 50% 이상, 4차까지 80%이상 발생되었다. 기형버섯조사에서는, 세 처리구 모두 2차 발생까지만 기형버섯이 발생되었다. 하지만 기형버섯 발생률에 있어서는 다른 처리구들에 비해 액체종균 접종구에서의 발생률이 낮았다. 수확량조사에서는 액체종균을 접종했을 때 배지당 411 g으로 처리구들 중 가장 많았고 10 g이 넘는 버섯도 309 g으로 톱밥종균과 성형종균에 비해 많았다. 그리고 발생된 자실체 개수는 톱밥종균과 성형종균 간에 유의성이 있었지만 자실체 개당 무게는 세 처리구 간에 유의성이 없었다.

In this study we attempted to analyze the change of protein and mycelial activity during low temperature storage progressed. At first, esterase and peroxidase isozymes were detected at third and fourth subculture in Pleurotus ostreatus and peroxidase isozymes in Pleurotus eryngii were detected at first and second subculture but esterase isozymes showed almost same band patterns subculture advanced. The decolorization ratio of media color including indicator were decreased according to subculture advanced in P. ostreatus and P. eryngii. However there were not significantly difference of mycelial growth, fruit body yield, esterase isozyme band pattern and laccase activity of P. eryngii according to storage periods at low temperature. Therefore, it was possible to store sawdust spawn of P. eryngii at 4℃ for 120days.
