Özet

In this study, the effects of various kinds of sawdust and bran on the yield of Ganoderma lucidum were investigated in artificial cultivation. Three kinds of sawdust (poplar, oak and beech) and three kinds of bran (wheat, rice and corn) were used at a substrate media in Ganoderma lucidum cultivation. Significant differences (P<0.01) were found among varieties of sawdust, bran and mixtures both in yield and biological efficiency (BE). The highest yield and BE were obtained from oak sawdust (OS) compared to the other sawdusts and also from wheat bran (WB) compared to the other brans. Yield and BE of rice bran (RB) at whole combinations, especially combination of OS:RB, were lower than in the other treatments, while substrates containing WB gave the highest yield.
