Abstract

Influences of nutrition, pH and temperature requirements on the mycelial growth of black poplar mushroom Agrocybe aegerita were studied in vitro. Good mycelial biomass was obtained at 25Â°C and pH of 7. Upon six carbon and nine nitrogen sources tested, sucrose and peptone proved the best carbon and nitrogen respectively. The best carbon and nitrogen sources at 3:3 ratio of sucrose: peptone was found to increase the mycelial biomass in liquid medium.

Keywords: Agrocybe aegerita, black poplar mushroom, pH, temperature, carbon, nitrogen sources
