A block-formed basidiomycete and a method of cultivation for the same.

摘要

The block-formed basidiomycete (10) of the present invention is formed by a block of basidiomycetous spawns, and its upper face (14) which is opposite side of the root section is a cut face or formed like a surface of cauliflowers or broccolis. Spawns agglutinate to one another to form a block, preferably they extend from root side to upward almost in parallel and agglutinate. The method of cultivating the block-formed basidiomycete comprises the following steps: (a) Filling media (16) in a cultivation bottle (18); (b) sterilizing the media; (c) inoculating seed spawns (24) on the media to cultivate spawns; (d) removing part of the seed spawns to form a bed after the cultivation; (e) producing many projected primordia (28) as spawns tissues on the bed by propagating the spawns in a vegetation room after forming the bed; and (f) agglutinating the primordia by plumping them, after formation, under conditions of shortage of oxygen and surplus of carbon dioxide thereby to suppress production of fruiting bodies. d
