Optimization of culture conditions for Xylaria striata

In this study, the optimum carbon and nitrogen sources on culturing Xylaria striata were screened, then the optimum temperature and pH value for the growth of fungi were studied, and further research was done to study its optimal formula of fruiting bodies culturing. Results showed that the optimum carbon source was glucose, optimum nitrogen source was powder of yeast, optimum temperature was 30益and optimum pH was 7 for Xylaria striata. The best optimal formula of fruiting bodies culturing was 75% cottonseed hull + 25% bran.
