Description

We tested the effectiveness of aeration for the growth of the termite mushroom Termitomyces eurrhizus in a liquid culture. Two aeration treatments, ventilation and shaking, were employed, and the mycelial mass in both treatments increased significantly compared to the controls. However, in both treatments, the mycelial mass tended to decrease from 2 weeks to 4 weeks, suggesting that new methods for promoting long-term culture, such as culture methods that suppress autolysis, are required for the sustainable production of this mushroom species.
