Effects of nitrogen and carbon sources on the decolorization rate of poly R-478 dye by a white rot basidiomycete Coriorus versicolor IFO 30388 were examined. The fungus exhibited 87.2% of decolorization rate when it was cultured in the state of stationary in a nitrogen-limited medium (pH 4.5) which contained 2.0% glucose, 0.04% ammonium tartrate, 0.02% poly R-478 dye, 2% $KH_2PO_4$, 0.5% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.1% $CaCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$, 0.002% thiamine-HCl and 10 mM 2,2 dimethylsuccinate (sodium) at $28^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Decolorization of the dye occurred in the presence of nitrogen source in the medium and decolorization rate increased rapidly after depletion of $NH_4^+$ from the medium.

The strain which produced glutathione was isolated from soil samples. The isolated strain was identified as the genus Candida through its morphological. cultural and physiological characteristics. The highest production of glutathione by Candida sp. was obtained after cultivation with shaking for 36 hours in the culture medium containing fructose 1.0%, yeast extract 4.0%. NaCI 0.04%, thiamine-HCI $5{\mu}g$/ml, and L-cysteine 0.04%. The optimal pH and temperature for the glutathione production were pH 6.0 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The glutathione production by Candida sp. under the optimal culture condition was $92{\mu}g/ml$.

Nutritional requirements for the growth of Flammulina velutipes were studied. Mannitol, glutamic acid and ammonium nitrate were chosen for the maximum mycelial growth when various carbon and nitrogen sources tested. Optimum C : N ratio for the mycelial growth was 20 : 1. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate was selected among the phosphate sources. Magnesium sulphate and thiamine HCl stimulate mycelial growth. Final compositions of optimized chemically defined medium were 1.5% mannitol, 0.082% $NH_4NO_3$, 0.312% glutamic acid, 0.25% $KH_2PO_4$, 0.06% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;and\;0.3\;{\mu}g/l$ thiamin HCl. This medium not only support mycelial growth but also induce fruit body formation.

Auricularia auricula-judae is an edible mushroom, which is known as wood ear, free ear, black ear mushroom, and free jelly fish. This study was carried out to obtain the basic information for mycelial culture conditions of Auricularia auriculajudae. According to colony diameter and mycelial density, the media for suitable mycelial growth were PDA and MCM. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth was $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$. Carbon and nitrogen sources were mannose and malt extract, respectively. The optimum C/N ratio was in the range of 10 to 1 with 2% glucose. Other minor components for the optimal growth were thiamine-HCl and biotin as vitamins, succinic acid and lactic acid as organic acids, and $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ and $KH_2PO_4$ as mineral salts.

The optimal cultural conditions for production of the bluish purple prgment by the cultivation of Streptomyces californicus KS-89 were determined with various substrates. The carbon and nitrogen sources on the production of pigment indicated that soluble strarch and glycerol as carbon sources and sodium glutamate sodium nitrate as nitrogen sources given a mzimum yield of the pigment at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The addition of ferrous sulfate was essential. The highest production of pigment was observed with cultivation in a medium containing 2.0% soluble starch 1% glycerol 0.5% sodium glutamate 0.05% sodim nitrate 0.001% L-proline 0.025% K2HPO4 0.005% MgSO4 .7H2O, 0.04% FeSO4.7H2O, 0.001% thiamine.HCl and pH7.0.

The production of cellulolytic enzymes by Pleurotus sajor-caju JAFM 1017 was stimulated by folic acid and thiamine-HCl. Among the inorganic salts, optimum concentrations of $KH_2PO_4$ and $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ were 0.2% (w/v) and 0.04% (w/v), respectively, but other inorganic salts were not effective for the production of the enzymes. The optimum culture temperature and pH for the production were $25^{\circ}C$ and 5.5 for avicelase, and $30^{\circ}C$ and 5.0 for CMCase, and $30^{\circ}C$ and 6.5 for ${\beta}-glucosidase$, respectively.

This study was carried out to obtain the basic data for artificial culture of Grifola umbellata. The optimal condition for the mycelial growth was obtained at $20^{\circ}C$ and pH 4, respectively. G. umbellata showed the most favorable growth on the Hoppkins media. Carbon sources such as glucose, fluctose and manitol were favorable for stimulating a mycelial growth of G. umbellata. Valine, one of nitrogen sources also appeared to be favorable to a mycelial growth. The optimum C/N ratio was about 30:1 in case that 1% glucose as carbon source was mixed with the basal media. Lactic acid as organic acid was most favorable to the mycelial growth. Also, thiamine-Hcl as vitamin source was favorable. The mineral nutrient of $FeSO_4$ or $MgSO_4$ was most favorable to G. umbellata, and its optimal concentration was about 0.01% in $FeSO_4$ and 0.1 % in $MgSO_4$ respectively. Among 4 different cereal extract media, polished rice extract medium which was mixed with silkworm pupae was most suitable for a favorable growth of G. umbellata.
