To elucidate optimum light conditions for artificial cultivation of Grifola frondosa, the effects of light quality (blue, green, white) and light intensity (200, 500, 800, 1200 lux) on primordium formation, morphological properties and yield of fruiting bodies of G. frondosa using bag cultivation method were tested. Among three light sources, white light source (400~620 nm) had a higher mushroom yield (242 g/bag) and a shorter cultivation period (52 days) than those of the others. In particular, blue light source (400~560 nm) induced the morphology of wide and deep colored pilei in G. frondosa fruiting body. The experimental results on the appropriate light intensity indicated that 500 lux light was the most effective on mushroom production, whereas primordium formation was effective at 200 lux.
