Three edible species, e.g. Lyophyllum sp. and Armillaria mellea introduced from Japan is 1979 and Auricularia auricula-judge from Taiwan in 1978 were selected for artificial cultivation. The media, MSDS for Lyophyllum sp, MHS and PDS for A. auricula-judae, and MSDS and MHS for A. mellea were selected. The range of optimum pH of Lyophyllum sp. was 6. 0 and pH 8.0 for A. auricula-judge and pH 6.0 to 7.0 for A. mellea. The range of optimum temperature for the mycelial growth of Lyophyllum sp. was 25 to 30℃, 30℃ for A. auricula-judge gad 25℃ for A. mellea. When the moisture content 75 to 80% (w/w) in the substrates, the mycelial growth of Lyophyllum sp. and A. auricula-judge, was rapid. 65% (w/w) for A. mellea.
As the spawning substrates, wheat for Lyophyllum sp. oak sawdust for A. auricula-judge and poplar sawdust for A. mellea were selected, respectively.
In this experiment, yields of Lyophyllum sp. and A. auricula-judge were high on the poplar sawdust added 20% (w/w) of rice bran. Lyophyllum sp. and A. auricula-judge for sources of new edible mushrooms seems to be possible.
