90 wild Agaricus strains from China, including 44 Agaricus bisporus strains identified preliminarily by isozyme electrophoresis, were studied by the techniques of SRAP and ISSR. 18 special SRAP bands and 12 special ISSR bands were analyzed, the strains were clustered and a demdrogram was obtained. The results showed that the strains were divided into 2 groups, wild A. bisporus group and the other Agaricus group. It is similar to the result of isozyme electrophoresis. 41 wild A. bisporus strains from Sichuan and Tibet were divided into 4 groups based on their growing places, suggesting the regionally difference of the strains to be quite obvious. Some white wild A. bisporus strains from Xinjiang and Tibet had special patterns, resulting in lower coefficient values with other wild A. bisporus strains. The biological characteristics of three wild A. bisporus strains were analyzed, and the results showed: 1. The wild strains grew slowly on PDA medium with weak appressed mycelia, and grew normally in kernel or fermented cottonseed shell substrate. 2. They grew faster than control strain As2796 under lower temperature of $16^{\circ}C$, and higher temperature of $32^{\circ}C$, with optimum growing temperature of $20-24^{\circ}C$, which was $4^{\circ}C$ lower than that of control strain. 3. In the cultivation with manure compost via twice fermentation, the mycelia grew normally in compost and quite slowly in casing soil, and the fruitbodies occurred less and late with easily opening and low production. 4. The fruitbody was off-white with flat and scaled cap, long stipe and dark gill. The bisporus basidia occupied 70-80% and trisporus basidia 20-30% of the total basidia. 5. Heterokaryotic monospore isolates could fruit in cultivation, and the homokaryotic isolates could cross with those derived from overseas wild A.bisporus strains. 6. The electrophoresis phenotype of isozymes such as esterase etc. belonged to high production type (H type). 7. The RAPD patterns made much difference from those of high production, good quality or hybrid strains, which indicated that the wild strains produce a new kind of RAPD type.

This study was performed to compare in vitro immune enhancing effects of polysaccharides extracted from cultivated mycelia of Agaricus blazei Murill. Carbohydrate contents of semi-purified polysaccharides were 85.6% and 95.3%, while ${\beta}$-glucan conents were 67.9% and 88.1% for intracellular and extracellular polysaccharide, respectively. Samples were adjusted to the same in their carbohydrate contents before efficacy tests. Both intracellular and extracellular polysaccharide increased nitric oxide (NO) synthesis of macrophage RAW 264.7 in dose dependent manner, and the maximum increase rate was 53.9 and 53.1% in intracellular and extraceltular polysaccharide, respectively. The polysaccharides also increased synthesis of cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-$1{\beta}$, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$ in RAW 264.7. For all the 3 cytokines, the increase rate of synthesis was much higher in extracellular polysaccharide compared to intracellular polysaccharide, especially at low concentration. Both polysaccarides increased the proliferation of splenocytes in vitro, intracellular polysaccharide showed increase in dose dependent manner while extraceltular polysaccharide showed increase untill medium concentration ($250\;{\mu}g/ml$). They did not show direct cytotoxicity against cancer cells such as B16F0 melanoma. As results, it was regarded that the both intracellular and extracellular polysaccharide from A. blazei showed immune enhancing effects in vitro, but the activity is higher in extracellular polysaccharide compared to intracellular polysaccharide.

This study was to investigate the effect of ultraviolet rays, soaking, boiling and baking to ergocalciferol ($Vit.D_2$) and riboflavin($Vit.B_2$) contents of mushrooms, Lentinus edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus and Agaricus bisporus. The results were as follow: 1. Mushrooms were exposed to ultraviolet rays Lentinus edodes : $10J/cm^2$, Pleurotus ostratus : $2J/cm^2$ and Agaricus bisporus : $2J/cm^2$. 2. Before exposing to ultraviolet rays, the ergocalciferol contents of mushrooms were all $0{\mu}g/g$ dry base, but after exposing to it , those of Lentinus edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus and Agaricus bisporus were $222.50{\pm}5.30{\mu}g/g$ dry base, $150.90{\pm}6.60{\mu}g/g$ dry base and $23.98{\pm}1.20{\mu}g/g$ dry base, respectively 3. Before and after exposing to ultraviolet rays, the riboflavin contents of Lentinus edoes, Pleurotus ostreatus and Agaricus bisporus were $18.22{\pm}0.71{\mu}g/g$ dry base and $11.72{\pm}0.50{\mu}g/g$ dry base, $4.57{\pm}0.20{\mu}g/g$ dery base and $3.26{\pm}0.15{\mu}g/g$ dry base, and $37.42{\pm}1.20{\mu}g/g$ dry base and $27.33{\pm}2.10{\mu}g/g$ dry base, respectively. 4. The ergocalciferol contents of mushrooms according to boiling time were not significantly different but the riboflavin contents of them were decreased according to the increase of boiling time. 5. The ergocalciferol and riboflavin contents of mushrooms were decreased according to the increase of NaCl concentration and baking temperature. 6. The ergocalciferol content of Lentinus edodes after a short time soaking at $80^{\circ}C$ was higher than a long time soaking at $20^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$.

One of the most important volatile aroma compounds responsible for mushroom flavor is 1-octen-3-ol. To meet the demand for natural mushroom flavor, a study was needed for the production of natural chiral specific (-)-1-octen-3-ol that has higher flavor intensity than synthetic chiral mixtures of (+), and (-)-1-octen-3-ol. The biosynthesis of (-)-1-octen-3-ol was achieved by an aerobic oxidation using lipoxygenase (LOX) and hydroperoxide lyase (HPOL) isolated from commercially available mushrooms in Korean market. Safflower oil from Uiseong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, that contains $\geq75\%$ of linoleic acid, was hydrolyzed using lipase. The recovered linoleic acid was biotransformed to stereo-specific 10-hydroperoxy linoleic acid by LOX. 10- hydroperoxy linoleic acid was further cleaved to (-)-1-octen-3-ol by HPOL. A commercial bioprocess for the production of (-)-1-octen-3-ol was developed using a 5-liter jar fermenter with fruiting bodies of Agaricus bisporus harvested from Buyeo, Chungcheongnam-do. The maximum production of (-)-1-octen-3-o1 was achieved at $4^{\circ}C$, pH 6.5 and 800 rpm yielding 748 mg/kg of mushroom.

This experiment investigates the characteristics of microorganisms isolated from a medium during cultivation process and reveals the relationship between these microorganisms and the growth of Agaricus bisporus. The domestically grown strains of Agaricus bisporus displayed a higher inhibition growth rate against microorganisms isolated from straw, chicken manure, and medium than imported strains. As for inhibition of mycelial growth among mushroom cultivars of the microorganisms separated by each fermentation step from the mushroom medium, the domestic cultivar, 'Saedo,' grew more vigorously among other cultivars. As the fermentation progressed, it was confirmed that inhibitation of microorganisms against Agaricus bisporus was weakened. A total of 21 strains of microorganisms that promote mushroom growth were isolated in the 4th turning process, and the microorganisms isolated from the mushroom medium affect the growth and as yield of the mushroom through secretory substances.

The basidomycetes fungus, Agaricus blazei Murill has been well known as the biologically active polysaccharides. They do not attack cancer cells directly, but produce their antitumor effects by activating various immune responses in the host. This present study was designed to investigate the immune activity of polysaccharides extracted from fruiting body, culture broth, and mycelia. In order to examine the optimum conditions of polysaccharide production, medium and C/N ratio were examined in flask culture. The fine polysaccharides were isolated and purified by DEAE cellulose and Sephadex CL-6B, respectively. Each fraction was spplied to recognize NO synthesis and TNF-${\alpha}$ for immune activity test.

For the purpose of isolation and screening of tyrosinase inhibitory activity from edible mushrooms, Pleurotus ostreatus, Auricularia auricula-Judae, Umbilicaria esculenta, Agaricus bisporus, Flammuline velutipes, Lentinus edodes, Ganoderma lucidum, and Coriouls versicolor were examined by tracing inhibitory activities against tyrosinase, utilizing L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) as a substrate. Among the eight edible mushrooms tested, Umbilicaria esculenta showed potent enzyme inhibitory activities above 7804% against tyrosinase in ethylacetate (EtOAc) extracts. Ganoderma lucidum and Agaricus bisporus showed inhibitory activities of 67.3% and 51.5% in water extracts. EtOAc extracts of Umbilicaria esculenta was fractionated from silicagel column chromatography and one fraction showed the most inhibitory activity of 60.9%. The three bands (Rf=0.38, 0.27, 0.19) were isolated from preparative TLC of the fraction for purification and identified as mixtures of orsellinate, methyl orsellinate, methyl lecanorate, and methyl gyrophorate by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), ultravisible spectrophotometer (UV), mass spectrophotometer (Mass), nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer (NMR).
