Abstract: | The hemagglutinating (HA) activity of the submerged mycelium and the culture liquid (CL) of four strains ofLentinus edodes was studied. The HA activity of the CLs proved to be much higher than that of mycelia. The carbohydrate specificity of fungal
agglutinating factors was determined. HA activity was investigated as a function of the inoculum size, cultivation temperature,
and culture age. The agglutinating activity of different morphogenetic structures ofL. edodes F-249, including mycelium, brown mycelial mat (MM), primordia, and fruiting bodies, was studied. MM was found to possess
the maximum HA activity, which can be explained by the possible involvement of agglutinins in the formation of MM, which is
composed of glued hyphae. |
