Domestication of Wild Agrocybe aegerita Sp. and Cultivation with Poultry Dung
An Agrocybe aegerita Sp. strain named "Agrocybe Yuwei 1" was isolated and purified by tissue isolation method. The isolation rate was 75% when isolated from the tissue of the connection of the stipe and the pileus. The observation on biological characteristics revealed that the most suitable temperature for the mycelia growth was 25 -30℃ ; the optimum pH was pH6-7; the mycelia grew well in the medium of 4g peptone + PDA enrichment or 20g wheat bran + PDA enrichment. The experiment results showed that the biological efficiency was 85% when wheat bran was substituted with 15% poultry dung as the culture medium.
