Abstract:
To provide a fungus bed cultivation bag that prevents mushroom spawn film from tearing when the fungus bed is removed from the bag and can surely form the fungus bed in an appropriate shape. The fungus bed cultivation bag includes body parts opposing in the front and the back, a folding gusset part connecting to both sides of the body parts, a bottom seal part formed by heat-sealing the lower ends of the body parts and an inclined seal part formed by heat-sealing the lower end sides of the body parts and the folding gusset part in an oblique direction.
Abstract:
Techniques for generating high-yield fungi production are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a system for generating high-yield fungi production, the system comprising at least one modular container and a growing system housed within the modular container. The growing system may include a substrate preparation system configured to accept substrate and prepare substrate for pasteurization, a pasteurization system configured to pasteurize prepared substrate received from the substrate preparation system, a draining, cooling, and packing system configured to cool and drain pasteurized prepared substrate from the pasteurization system and to pack pasteurized and cooled substrate into at least one growing container, an inoculation system configured to inoculate the pasteurized and cooled substrate, and a plurality of vertical racks coupled to a ceiling of the modular container and configured to hold the at least one growing container.
Abstract:
Methods of producing hybrid Agaricus bisporus mushrooms strains derived or descended from at least one wild mushroom strain and having the specified traits of either greatly diminished sporulation or an absence of sporulation, and of obtaining postmeiotic offspring of nonsporlating basidiomycete fungi including Agaricus bisporus, are disclosed.
Abstract:
Methods for causing, enhancing, and/or expediting consumption of an article by at least one biodegradative living organism are disclosed. The methods include the use of at least one additional living organism that enhances and/or expedites consumption of the article by the at least one biodegradative living organism.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an industrial scale process of cultivating cultivating Ganoderma lucidum mycelia. As high as 15 Kg dried Ganoderma lucidum mycelia may be produced from about 300 liters liquid culture every 30 days, and the resulting dried Ganoderma lucidum mycelia are rich in triterpenoids that include at least ganoderic acid S (GAS), ganoderic acid T (GAT), ganoderic acid Me (GAMe), ganoderic acid R (GAR), and ganodermic acid S (GMAS).
Abstract:
Provided is a method of culturing ganoderma lucidum mycelia in which the content of ganodermanondiol serving as an inhibitor to melanin biosynthesis is enhanced to improve skin whitening function.
Abstract:

Other embodiments include a hybrid strain of Agaricus bisporus having BP-1 as one parent and an OW, SW, HW or experimental BW strain as a second parent. Still other embodiments include a hybrid strain of Agaricus bisporus having strain B12998 as at least one parent. Methods are provided for obtaining offspring including homokaryotic lines from select hybrid strain cultures of Agaricus bisporus, as well as methods and processes for producing hybrid mushroom cultures. A method of mushroom strain development is further provided.
Abstract:
The composite material is comprised of a substrate of discrete particles and a network of interconnected mycelia cells bonding the discrete particles together. The composite material is made by inoculating a substrate of discrete particles and a nutrient material with a preselected fungus. The fungus digests the nutrient material over a period of time sufficient to grow hyphae and to allow the hyphae to form a network of interconnected mycelia cells through and around the discrete particles thereby bonding the discrete particles together to form a self-supporting composite material. In another embodiment, the fungus is allowed to grow as a fruiting body out of the substrate and within an enclosure to completely fill the enclosure to form a self-supporting structure.
