Abstract

|
|
The study has been carried out to investigate the possibility of oak mushroom (shiitake) cultivation on Ban Oak (Quercus incana) growing naturally in Simlaregion, India.
The survival and growth of oak mushroom mycelium and fruit body formation on Q. incana as well as the composition of the log were compared with that of Bristle-tooth oak (Q. serrata) which are being used for mushroom cultivation in Korea. The results are summarized as follows.
1. The content of alcohol-benzen extract, NaOH extract, NaOH extract and ash were higher in Q. incana than in Q. Serrata. While cellulose and pentosan were less in the formers.
2. The mycelial growth of oak mushroom were more rapid on sawdust medium of Q. serrata than on Q. incana. However the mycelial growth on the later were more compact.
3. The mycelial growth of oak mushroom were more rapid on the logs of Q. serrata than Q. incana. The mycelium survived well on both two species, and no difference in the survival rate of mycelium were observed.
4. The first fruit bodies on logs of Q. Serrata and Q. incana were appeared 16 months inoculation of spawn.
5. In view of the above results, it seems that the cultivation of oak mushroom (shiitake) on Ban oak (Q. incana), growing in India, is possible.
