摘要:Comparative studies on mushroom strains from various localities are one of the best ways to screen for strains with improved yield and quality. The current study was conducted to evaluate the mycelial growth rate, primordial initiation time, biological efficiency, and nutritional components of four domesticated and one cultivar (Control) strain of Pholiota adiposa . Strain JZB2116005 exhibited the highest mycelial growth rate (2.56 ± 0.03 mm/d), whereas the control strain JZB2116001 was lowest (2.34 ± 0.01 mm/d). The mycelial colonization time and primordial initiation time of different strains were not consistent with the mycelial growth rates. It took approximately 8 – 9 days and 11 – 12 days longer for control strain JZB2116001 to colonize the whole bags and to form primordial, than strain JZB2116005. The highest biological efficiency (67.88 ± 1.33%) was observed in strain JZB2116005 while the control strain JZB2116001 was worst (41.35 ± 1.72%). Fruiting bodies of strain JZB2116005 showed better morphological traits and higher chemical contents as compared with the control strain JZB2116001. Therefore, from a commercial point of view, it was necessary to replace strain JZB2116001 with strain JZB2116005 in production
