Abstract
Members of the genus Tuber are ectomycorrhizal fungi; this genus includes more than 180 species worldwide. In the present study, the optimal pH, temperature, and medium suitable for the mycelial growth of the Korean truffle, Tuber koreanum, were determined. Mycelium of T. koreanum, isolated from fruiting bodies collected in Korea, was used to investigate the effects of these environmental factors. The results showed that malt extract agar and potato dextrose agar were the most suitable for the mycelial growth of T. koreanum when cultured at a pH of 6.0 at 25 °C for 30 days.
块茎属的成员是外生菌根真菌;这一属在世界范围内包括180多种。本研究确定了适合韩国块菌菌丝生长的最佳pH、温度和培养基。利用在韩国采集的韩国葡萄(T. koreanum)子实体中分离的菌丝体,研究了这些环境因素的影响。结果表明,在pH为6.0、温度为25℃的条件下培养30 d时,麦芽膏琼脂和马铃薯葡萄糖琼脂最适合korea T. korea菌丝的生长。
期刊介绍:
Mycobiology is an international journal devoted to the publication of fundamental and applied investigations on all aspects of mycology and their traditional allies. It is published quarterly and is the official publication of the Korean Society of Mycology. Mycobiology publishes reports of basic research on fungi and fungus-like organisms, including yeasts, filamentous fungi, lichen fungi, oomycetes, moulds, and mushroom. Topics also include molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, metabolism, developmental biology, environmental mycology, evolution, ecology, taxonomy and systematics, genetics/genomics, fungal pathogen and disease control, physiology, and industrial biotechnology using fungi.
