This study was carried out to offer the successive method of cultivation and increase the productivity of mushroom yield with good quality through the elevation of rate of spawn development for Lentinus edodes. Studied about the analysis of current management of actural cultivation, a base of these, researched and presented for the upward method of productivity through an experiment of the high rate of spawn development and cultivation, putting first cultural environment. The results obtained were as follows ; 1. As the result of the analysis of current management in actural cultivation, many cultivators had a tendency to neglect managements of cultivation. These were reason for the deficiency of labour, funds and the lack of knowledge of cultivation, etc. 2. Water contents in bed logs according to the date of inoculation was shown as the decreasing order of 28.63%(3/12), 25.20%(3/25) and 23.19%(4/10). For the purpose of the maintenance of the water contents, the full-development of mycelium in bed logs and the dispersion of labour, the date of inoculation should be started in the early March. 3. The difference of the rate of spawn development among species was not shown, 100%(Mori 465). 98.98%(Mori 3046) on the spawn in high temperature and 98.97%(Mori 290) on the spawn in low temperature. The relative rate of spawn development was 97.70%(Mori 465), 82.45%(Mori 3046) on the spawn in high temperature and 88.87%(Mori 290) on the spawn in low temperature, it showed the difference. The spawn should be selected carefully in the future, as the spawn of cultivater's preference showed the difference for the development of mycelium. 4. The rate of spawn development following the date of inoculation was 100.0%(3/12), 98.98%(3/25) and 96.79%(4/10) on the spawn in high temperature and 99.09%(3/12), 98.97%(3/25) and 97.89% (4/10) in low temperature, it showed little difference. And the relative rate of spawn development was 97.70%(3/12), 82.45%(3/25) and 81.42%(4/10) on the spawn in high temperature and 93.27%(3/12), 89.67%(3/25) and 88.87%(4/10) that in low temperature, As the result of the relative rate, the time of inoculation of spawn should begin in the early March. 5. The height of stock logs on temporary placing should be less than 60cm at most on the surface, because of the low rate of water contents.

For the improvement of productivity of Pleurotus ostreatus, the production of liquid spawn was studied. The highest liquid spawn production was obtained after shaking culture for 4 days in the culture medium containing 5%(W/V) wheat flour, 0.2%(W/V) yeast extract, 0.1%(W/V)$KNO_3$ 0.05% (W/V) $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.05%(W/V) $KH_2PO_4$. The optimum pH and temperature was 7.0 ana $30^{\circ}C$. The period required to complete the mycelial growth after spawning were 28, 22, 10 and 9 days, respectively, when the 2%(V/V) of solid spawn and 2%(V/V), 5% (V/V) and 10%(V/V) of liquid spawn were inoculated. The days required from spawning to fruiting bodies were 38, 34, 28 and 27 days.

For the detection of contaminated liquid spawn, we selected suitable medium, indicator and developed method of diagnosis. The growth of pathogenic bacteria, Pseudomonas sp., and fungi, Trichoderma sp., in YPL media was better than in PDA and NA. In addition, the changes of color and absorbance of media were obviously showed when contaminated liquid spawn by pathogenic bacteria and fungi was incubated on YPL including phenol red for 48 hour at $25^{\circ}C$. The color of YPLP after incubating of infected liquid spawn by Pseudomonas sp. and Trichoderma sp. were changed from orange to red and to scarlet, respectively. Whereas, the color of YPLP after incubation of only Pleurotus ostreatus indicated yellow at liquid spawn. Therefore, it is possible to easily distinguish contaminated liquid spawn by color of change in YPLP.

To improve the productivity of shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes), seven different types of media for liquid spawn (denoted as "A" to "G") were prepared with 0.3% soybean meal and varying sugar and glucose concentrations. During 14 days of incubation, the pH of the liquid culture gradually acidified with increasing incubation period. Additionally, there was a significant, but not prominent, difference in the degree of acidification depending on the sugar to glucose ratio. Liquid spawn culture "G," which had the highest sugar content was the most acidic on the last day of incubation. Mycelium dry weight increased significantly with increasing incubation period, and there was no significant difference in mycelium dry weight irrespective of the sugar to glucose ratio even after 14 days of culture. The inoculation of liquid spawn in sawdust medium with an inoculation volume ${\geq}45mL$ and incubation period of 15 to 18 days were the optimal culture conditions. Productivity of fruit bodies in sawdust medium and mushrooms treated with liquid spawn was significantly higher compared to solid spawn treatment. The mushrooms treated with liquid spawn had better chewiness, and the free amino acid content, which is associated with savory taste, was higher in these mushrooms compared to those treated with solid spawn.

Spawn is the vegetative growth of the mycelium and serves as the inoculum or seed for cultivating mushrooms. Various cereal grains, such as wheat, millet, barley, sorghum, brown rice, rye, and oat were assessed to compare their characteristics and suitability for spawn production of button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). The mycelial growth rates, density, and the number of completely colonized grains were measured from the twentieth day of inoculation. Wheat grains showed fastest mycelial growth with 8.4 cm followed by rye, oat, barley with 8.2, 7.5 and 7.3 cm, respectively. In the mycelial density, foxtail millet, barley, and sorghum were best compared with that of wheat grains. Especially, the number of grains which were completely colonized by mycelia were greatest in foxtail millet with 5,123 grains followed by proso millet, and wheat with 3,052 and 914, respectively. Based on the results obtained, barley, foxtail millet, and sorghum grains would be appropriate substituting for wheat grain in spawn production of button mushroom.

When medicinal mushroom, Poria cocos, is cultured , inoculation method of spawn is cross slice inoculation of which the both sides of pine tree were peeled and spawn of P.cocos was inoculated. However, this method required lots of inoculation amount. This study was carried out to improve the culturing method of P. cocos. A good growth of P.cocos was observed in MCM(mushroom complete medium), showing proper mycelia growth and density. In inoculation amount, conventional method(cross slice inoculation) requires 20 bottles of spawn. In contrast, short log method required 8 bottles of spawn and drilling inoculation method 2~3 bottles, which could save by 60% and 85-90% respectively. In the selectrion of tree species, pine and larch had better condition for spawn culture and sclerotia formation condition.In terms of yield , pine was 33.7kg/3.3$m^2$. In the yield of pine, conventional method was 23.4kg/3.3$m^2$, drilling inoculation 29.4kg/3.3$m^2$, short log inoculation 31.7kg/3.3$m^2$, therefore drilling inoculation could increase by 25% and short log inoculation 35%, In addition, management cost was also saved.

We investigated the effect of nitrogen fixing Azotobacter bioinoculant on the mycelial growth and the rate of substrate utilization by Pleurotus eous. The synergistic or antagonistic role of the microorganism during dual culturing with the mushroom or the competitor molds Trichoderma viride, and Trichoderma reesi was studied. Azotobacter was inhibitory to the molds, which are competitive to the mushroom in the seed spawn substrate, but was synergistic towards the mushroom. The growth, substrate utilization potential as total nitrogen content and cellulase enzyme activities of the mushroom in the seed spawn substrate were also enhanced in the presence of the bioinoculant at lower inoculum concentrations, upto 5 ml broth culture per spawn bottle.

The cultivation in sawdust media, mushroom productivity, and fruiting body characteristics of Lentinula edodes strains NIFoS 2778 and NIFoS 3363 were compared according to the inoculation conditions. The cultivation period was 5% shorter when liquid spawn was used. Fruiting bodies were induced after 113 days of incubation on media inoculated with liquid spawn, and the cultivation period was 119 days on media inoculated with solid spawn. Mushroom productivity of NIFoS 2778 was the highest (661.4 g) when 36 mL of liquid spawn was used. For NIFoS 3363, mushroom production was higher under liquid inoculation conditions when the same amount of liquid and solid spawns were used. The mushroom characteristics of the two strains were not significantly different, except for gill width and stipe diameter.

In this paper, we propose a vehicular cooperative navigation system using GNSS, vision sensor and radar sensor that are frequently used in mass-produced cars. The proposed cooperative vehicular navigation system is a variant of the Hybrid-Sum Product Algorithm over Wireless Network (H-SPAWN), where we use vision and radar sensors instead of radio ranging(i.e.,UWB). The performance is compared and analyzed with respect to the sensors, especially the position estimation error decreased about fifty percent when using radar compared to vision and radio ranging. In conclusion, the proposed system with these popular sensors can improve position accuracy compared to conventional cooperative navigation system(i.e.,H-SPAWN) and decrease implementation costs.
