Abstract

The mycelial growths of wood-decaying mushroom strains collected from Korean forests were investigated on solid media under different culture media and temperatures. Most of strains showed the higher mycelial growth on potato dextrose agar (PDA) than malt extract agar (MEA) or sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) plates. Except for a few strains, they grew well on PDA at 25ºC and showed a poor growth at low temperature (10ºC) than high temperature (30ºC). All strains showed the carboxymethylcellulase (CM-cellulase) and laccase activities on solid media containing the specific substrates for two different enzymes.
