꽃송이 버섯의 균사생장은 $25^{circ}C$의 온도와 pH4의 조건에서 가장 양호하였으며, Hamada 배지에서 가장 조밀한 생장을 나타낸 반면, Hoppkins 배지에서 가장 큰 직경생장을 나타내었다. Maltose, Arabinose 및 Mannitol 같은 탄소원은 꽃송이 버섯의 양호한 생장을 촉진하였다. 또한, 질소원의 하나인 Glycine도 양호한 균사생장을 나타내었다. 배지에 탄소원을 1%로 고정시킨후 C/N비를 20:1로 하였을 때, 꽃송이 버섯 균사의 생장이 가장 양호하였다. 유기산으로서 Fumaric acid와 Lactic acid의 처리를 하였을 때, 꽃송이 버섯의 생장이 좋았다.
This study was carried out to obtain the basic data for artificial culture of Sparassis crispa. The optimal conditions for the mycelial growth were $25^{circ}C$ and pH 4, respectively. The mycelial density of S. crispa was most compact in the Hamada media, whereas colony diameter was prominent in the Hoppkins media. Carbon sources such as maltose, arabinose and mannitol were favorable for stimulating a mycelial growth of S. crispa. Glycine, one of nitrogen sources also appeared to be favorable to the mycelial growth. The optimum C/N ratio was about 20 : 1 in case that 1% glucose as carbon source was mixed with the basal medium. Fumaric acid or lactic acid as organic acid was most favorable to the mycelial growth.
