Abstract:

This study cultivated Ganoderma lingzhi using a substitute cultivation method and compared various formulas with 0, 5%, 10%, 20%, and 30% wheat bran addition to examine the impact of the carbon/nitrogen ratio on the growth rate of myceliam, biological efficency, and active ingredient content. The results showed that when the wheat bran addition amount was 0, the harvested fruiting bodies of G. lingzhi had the highest polysaccharide content. When the wheat bran addition amount was 5%, the total content of triterpenoid in both the fruiting bodies and spores of G. lingzhi was the highest, and the polysaccharide content in the spores was also at its peak. The biological efficency of G. lingzhi reached the highest (25.53%) when the wheat bran addition amount was 20%. The study indicates that an appropriate carbon/nitrogen ratio is essential for ensuring the production efficiency and quality of G. lingzhi.

Key words: substitute cultivation, Ganoderma lingzhi, wheat bran, biomass, polysaccharide, triterpenoid
