| Abstract |
Enoke; winter; velvet stems; mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) is well known as a very popular, delicious and edible and medicinal mushroom in Asian countries specially China and Japan. Since this mushroom is highly prized for their culinary and medicinal value, it has recently been introduced to Egypt. This study tended to optimize the submerged culture conditions for the production of mycelial biomass of level of F. velutipes (two strains). Among studied carbon sources, glucose was the most favorable at level of 6% for Fv. 19 and 7% for Fv. 01 strains. Yeast extract was the most suitable nitrogen source for both strains at concentration of 0.6%. The optimum fermentation temperature was 25°C for 15 days and the most favorable initial pH value was 6.5 with inoculume size of 8-9 %(v/v).
Applying the determined optimum condition together enhanced the mycelial biomass of the tested strains more than using each individual factor. The mycelial biomass of the tested F. velutipes strains contained relatively comparable chemical constituents to that of fruit bodies. The results of this study are promising and could be considered as a successful step for further studies on the nutritional and medicinal properties of this fungus.
