Abstract
The main objectives of the study were to investigate cultural characteristics of Phellinus linteus. The optimum culture media for mycelial growth of P. linteus were MYA (malt yeast agar) and SMS (soybean powder malt Sucrose). Similarly, optimum temperature and pH were $30^{\circ}C$ and 6.0, respectively. Malt extract (2%, v/v) and yeast extract (0.2%, v/v) were optimum carbon and nitrogen sources. Similarly, 0.1% $KH_2PO_4$ was optimum mineral salt. Highest mycelial growth was observed when C/N ratio was 10 : 1. Optimum inoculum amount for flask culture was $5{\sim}6$ mycelial discs (6 mm diameter) per 100 ml of liquid medium, Highest mycelial dry weight was obtained when cultured in 100 ml liquid medium in 300 ml shaking flask after 20 days of shaking culture, For mass liquid culture (8 l), flask culture was homogenized and used as an inoculum. Optimum culture period and aeration rate for 8l fermentation culture were 12 days and 2.0 vvm, respectively.
목질진흙버섯의 균사생육에 적합한 배지로는 MYA(malt yeast agar)와 SMS(soybean flour malt extract sugar)이며, MYA를 기본배지로 사용하였다. 균사생육은 $30^{\circ}C$의 온도와 pH는 5.0에서 생장이 양호하였다. 영양원으로는 malt extract 2%, yeast extract 0.2%와 $KH_{2}PO_{4}$ 0.1% 상태에서 균사생장 및 밀도가 양호하였다. C/N비는 10 : 1의 비율이 가장 적합하였다. 삼각플라스크배양을 위해서는 용기부피 300 ml Shake flask에 100 ml의 배양액을 넣고 $5{\sim}6$개 균사체 절편을 접종하여 20일간 배양하면 높은 고립상의 균체를 양호하게 증식시킬 수 있었다. 대량 액체종균 배양을 위해 접종원을 균질기로 분쇄하여 통기량 2.0 vvm의 조건에서 12일 배양하면 높은 균사의 생장을 보였고 접종에도 수월하였다.
