Effect of Food Waste Compost on the Antler-Type Fruiting Body Yield of Ganoderma lucidum = Effect of Food Waste Compost on the Antler-Type Fruiting Body Yield of Ganoderma lucidum

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The effects of the composition of a mixture containing food waste compost (FWC), rice bran (RB), and oak sawdust (SD) on the antler-type fruiting body (FB) yield of Ganoderma lucidum were studied. Experiments were performed using 0 (control), 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40% (w/w) FWC added to a basal growth medium consisting of 20% (w/w) RB and 80% (w/w) SD. The content of 15% FWC gave the highest FB yield (27.0 ± 1.3 g/bottle), which was 44% higher than the yield (18.6 ± 2.8 g/bottle) of the control treatment. However, FWC contents of 20~40% showed reduced yield (2.4~23.0 g/bottle), partly because FWC had a high Na concentration (0.6%). These results demonstrate the potential for use of FWC as a component of a growth medium for production of G. lucidum FBs.
