The grains were used as solid-substrate for the cultivation of basidiomycetes. The grains were fermented with Ganodema lucidum 7094, Fomitella fraxinea 81003, Phellinus igniarius 26005, and its free sugar composition was investigated. For the mass cultivation of mycelia, the hydrated grains with cold water were put into the plastic bottle. The mycelial growth rate in the bottled grains was high in the early stage with inoculation of homogenized mycelium. The activity of mycelium was maintained by adding sterilized water in the middle of cultivation. There was marked difference in the content of total free sugar and composition ratio of free sugar according to kinds of basidiomycetes. The content of free sugar increased far more in grains fermented with mycelium than in grains which was not fermented.

The properties of various grains used for the solid-state cultivation of basidiomycetes were examined. The hydration time with cold water was 10 hours for malt soybean. The required hydration time for Job's tears, barley and wheat was 4, 6 and 12 hours, respectively, but the final moisture content ranged from 30 to 48 %, which was much less than the optimum moisture content for mycelial growth. For the mass cultivation of mycelia, the hydrated grains with cold water were placed in plastic bottles. The mycelial growth ra in e bottled grains was high in the early stage with inoculation of homogenized mycelium. The mycelium activity was maintained by adding sterilized water in the middle of the cultivation period. Jupjang underwent sensory evaluation to examine the possibility of utilizing basidiomycetes in functional foods. The grains fermented with Ganoderma lucidum was the best for Jupjang. The combination of malt soybean and Job's tears was the best for Jupjang. The acceptability of Jupjang was improved during the period of aging time.

This study examined the changes in the protein and mineral composition of Gryllus bimaculatus fermented with Bacillus substilis and the mycelia of Basidiomycetes. Normal Gryllus bimaculatus (S) and experimental group data obtained after an inoculation of Bacillus substilis (SC) (KACC 19623), Pleurotus eryngii (SP) and Cordyceps millitaris (SC) were compared. The crude protein content of the Gryllus bimaculatus (control) was 75.48%, but it decreased to 64.55, 54.32, and 63.53% after fermentation with SB, SP and SC, respectively (p<0.05). An analysis of the organic elements showed that the contents of the carbon and nitrogen sources were also reduced after fermentation, and the most significant decrease was observed after fermentation with SP. In SDS-PAGE, a 120 kDa and a 48 kDa protein of Gryllus bimaculatus were found. On the other hand, protein bands faded after fermentation with SP and SC, respectively. Moreover, no visible band was observed after fermentation with SB. According to amino acid analysis, the total free amino acid content increased 3.84 and 1.74 times after fermentation with SB and SP, respectively, compared to the corresponding baseline data. In contrast, it decreased by 0.52 times after fermentation with SC. Among the essential amino acids found in crickets fermented with SB, the valine and isoleucine content was 3.57 and 2.64 times higher, respectively, than the recommended daily amount of essential amino acids.

This experiment was undertaken to investigate proper conditions for protoplast formation from Lyophyllum ulmarium. Combination of Novozym 234, ${\beta}-Glucuronidase$ and ${\beta}-D-Glucanase$ with 0.6 M Sucrose was the most effective for isolation of protoplasts. The optimal reaction time of mycelium with the lytic mixture was 3 hrs in shaking condition at 120 strokes $min-^1$. When the mycelium of L. ulmarium was cultured for 6 days on yeast glucose agar medium at $25^{\circ}C$, the formation of protoplasts was effective. The yeast glucose agar medium stabilized with 0.6 M sucrose was the most effective for reversion of protoplasts.

Ribonucleic acid contents and mononucleotides distribution from the mycelium and fruit bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were studied. P.E.I. cellulose TLC and HPLC were applied in this study. The obtained results are as follows; The levels of ribonucleic acids from the young basidiocarp mycelium were higher than those of mature basidiocarp. Guanosine 5'-monophosphate and xanthosine 5'-monophosphate were found in both young basidiocarp mycelium and mature basidiocarp. The levels of guanosine 5'-monophosphate and xanthosine 5'-monophosphate from the young basidiocarp were higher than those of the mature basidiocarp. However, inosine 5'-mono­phosphate was not detected.

This study was designed to develop functional drink from jujube extract through a simple submerged culture of three basidiomycetes species. The optimum Brix and pH of the jujube extract for culturing the Ganoderma lucidum appeared to be 5 Brix and pH 4. Ten days of culture period produced maximum mycelium. The optimum Brix and pH of the jujube extract for culturing the Coriolus versicolor appeared to be 5 Brix and pH 5. Ten days of culture period produced maximum mycelium. The optimum Brix and pH of the jujube extract for culturing the Phellinus igniarius appeared to be 3 Brix and pH 5. For the maximum mycelial production eighteen days of culture period was required for Phellinus igniarius. The antitumor activity of the polysaccharides extracted from the fermented drinks was demonstrated through the tumor cell line experiments. The $IC_{50}$ values of the jujube drinks fermented with Ganoderma lucidum and Phellinus igniarius against stomach cancer cell line appeared to be one fourth that of the jujube drink which was not fermented with basidiomycetes.

The transfer of the isolated nuclei from P. florida into protoplasts of P. ostreatus was induced with polyethylene glycol and $CaCl_2$. Three types of transfer products of nuclei were obtained when transferred to MMM. Type 1 colonies were more vigrously growing mycelium and stable on MCM. One of the type 1 colonies, appeared segregation on MCM plus benomyl. The mycelium did not form clamp connection. These results suggest that type 1 colonies were nuclear hybrids or allodiploids. Type 2 was main products of nuclear transfer. The mycelium formed clamp connection and fertile on sawdust media. Type 3 was very slow growing or non-viable colonies after debris of nuclei or chromosomes transfer into recipient protoplasts. Isozyme pattern of esterase in type 1 produced a new band. Type 2 and type 3 could be characterized by parental bands.

In this study, the antitumor activities were investigated using $\beta$-lmmunan, a proteoglycan obtained from cultured mycelia of the IY009 strain of Ganoderma lucidum belonging to basidiomycetes. The result showed the significant effect of cytotoxicity test against murine sarcoma 180 and murine lymphocytic leukemia L1210 using immunized macrophage cultures by $\beta$-lmmunan. When intraperitoneally injected at 40 mg/kg/day daily for 10 days, $\beta$-lmmunan inhibited the growth of sarcoma 180 solid tumor in ICR mice by 88.8% (p<0.05). It was also observed that $\beta$-lmmunan increased life span by 85.2% (p<0.01) after treatment of 100 mg/kg/day in BDF1 mice bearing lymphocytic leukemia L1210. And combination therapy with cisplatin (dosage: 4 mg/kg) increased life span by 140.4% (p<0.05) after treatment of 100 mg/kg/day daily in BDF1 mice bearing lymphocytic leukemia L1210.
