  • Ganoderma lucidum, a divine mushroom, beared the nonbasidiocarpus basidiospore without the normal basidiocarp. The fungus formed the basidial stroma from the aerial mycelium on agar media, and the basidium was developed from apical cells of the mycelium on the surface of the basidial stroma. One to four basidiospores were observed on a basidium. The nonbasidiocarpous basidiospores formed on the basidial stroma were similar to the normal basidiospores in morphology, although the nonbasidiocarpus basidiospores were slightly smaller in size. However, the number of hollow on the spore surface was remarkably smaller than that of the normal spore. The formation of nonbasidiocarpous basidiosproes was influenced by the genetic factor and the environmental factors such as light, temperature and ventilation.
