Summary:碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 食品科學系 === 86 === Ear mushrooms are popular in Taiwan. Five kinds of ear mushroom are commercially available in Taiwan, including black (Auricularia mesenterica (Dickson) Persoon), red (Auricularia polytricha (Montagne) Saccardo), jin (Auricularia fuscosuccinea (MontagneFarlow), brown strain), snow (Auricularia fuscosuccinea (Montagne) Farlow, white strain) and silver ears (Tremella fuciformis Berkeley). Snow ear is a translucent white of jin ears, which is a newly cultivated edible ear mushroom in Taiwan. For most p The snow ear contained higher crude fat, fiber and protein and lower carbohydrate than silver ear. The same advantage made it possible to compete with other ears. These ear mushrooms contained very low amount of soluble sugars. The silver ear contained high amount of reducing sugars, which meant that it contained high calories. These five ears contained nine kinds of essential amino acid but very low amount of free amino acids. The snow ear contained highest amount of flavor 5''-nucleotides. The mai On the linear growth rate, ODA had a significant effect on the mycelial growth of black, red, jin, and snow ear. The relative linear growth rate of red, jin, and snow ears were 1.167, 1.451 and 2.013 at the concentration of 10 ppm ODA, respectively. ODA could raise the growth rate of black ear, but had no significant effect at any concentrations of ODA. In liquid culture of red ear, it was found that the higher concentrations of ODA, the higher concentrations of biomass and laccase activity. At 10 ppm ODA, the biomass and laccase activity of mycelium of red ear were about 118%, and 250 % of mycelial growth compared to that of the control, respectively. In the log cultivation of snow ear, it was found that the higher concentrations of ODA, the higher yield of snow ear at the first, second flush and the sum of the first and second flush. For the application of ODA on snow ear cultivation, the use of more than 5 ppm ODA was suggested. The flavor qualities of ear mushroom were lower than other mushrooms. Due to the compositions of amino acid and fatty acid. Ear mushrooms could be the healthy food. The mushroom biologically active substance-ODA could promote the growth of ear mushroom mycelium. In the application of mushroom cultivation, ODA could promote the growth of mycelium and increase the yield of snow ears. The result of the present study could be applied to other mushrooms.
