After treatment of basidiospores of P. cornucopiae with ultraviolet light, 84 putative mutants from 4671 isolates were obtained. The highest proportion of auxotrophic mutants was obtained from the isolates irradiated to give $0.4{\sim}1.0%$ survival. Fourteen auxotrophs were selected for protoplast fusion and each genetic marker was identified.

This experiment was undertaken to investigate considerable economy of labor for selection of auxotrophs from strains of Lentinus edodes. Various types of auxotrophs of this strain were isolated after treatment of basidiospores with ultraviolet light, and the highest proportion of putative mutants was also obtained from isolates irradiated to give 1.30 % survival.
