Artificial culture medium is used in the initial stages for the propagation of button mushroom. Cultivation of the thread on special and agar-containing media allows us to ensure that the thread is not contaminated, in addition to controlling the quality of the thread.
Special culture medium for propagation and maintenance of edible mushroom stem
The special culture medium for propagation and maintenance of edible mushroom is called compost-agar culture medium. These cultures are poured into special containers called plates or petri dishes as well as test tubes. Plates may be glass or plastic. Pure mushroom filaments may be purchased for the first time from reputable centers or obtained by the manufacturer by tissue culture. Purification of wild strains of edible mushroom in Jalga Dez Agricultural Company is done by tissue culture.
But the pure thread of commercial strains is bought and imported from foreign companies. After multiplying the thread on these cultures, and ensuring the quality of the thread and its non-contamination, these threads are used to inoculate commercial spawn.
