Abstract

The fungus Phellinus is a mushroom that is widely used medicinally. The optimal conditions for mycelial growth of 13 strains of the fungus were investigated. Mycelial growth was optimal at 25$^{\circ}C$ and was uniformly minimal at 15$^{\circ}C$ and 35$^{\circ}C$. Growth was optimal at pH 6$\sim$7. The mycelial phenotype was best promoted by growth using Potato Dextrose agar, Hamada, Glucose peptone, and Yeast-Malt media, whereas Czapek Dox, Hennerberg, and Lilly media were the most unfavorable for the mycelial growth of Phellinus spp. Glucose, sucrose, fructose, and dextrin were the most suitable carbon sources for mycelial growth, while lactose, maltose, and galactose were unsuitable. Among tested nitrogen sources, ammonium phosphate, potassium nitrate, and arginine best promoted mycelial growth, while alanine, urea, and histidine least promoted mycelial growth.
