The present invention discloses a new Hericium erinaceus strain HE015, and a molecular marker and use thereof. Wild fungi are widely collected throughout China and subjected to systematic strain breeding to obtain a new fine-quality Hericium erinaceus strain HE015. The strain HE015 was preserved in Guangdong Microbial Culture Collection Center on May 12, 2022 with an accession number of GDMCC No: 62464. The genetic background of the strain is obviously different from that of the existing Hericium erinaceus species; therefore, the new strain is of important value and significance in supplementing fine-quality cultivated Hericium erinaceus varieties, meeting the market demand and promoting high-quality development of the industry. The present invention further provides a specific molecular marker and a rapid detection method for detecting and identifying the strain HE015.

The invention relates to methods of cultivating ectomycorrhizal fungi, the method comprising incubating ectomycorrhizal MAT1-1 mycelia, ectomycorrhizal MAT1-2 mycelia, and ectomycorrhizal male mycelia in a culture medium for about 1 day to about 50 days, thereby cultivating ectomycorrhizal fungi to produce an ectomycorrhizal fungal biomass comprising MAT1-1 ectomycorrhizal mycelia, MAT1-2 ectomycorrhizal mycelia, and male ectomycorrhizal mycelia. Also provided are methods of use of the ectomycorrhizal mycelial biomass.

Disclosed is a Flammlina filiformis with a fruiting body of a golden cap and a white stipe. The Flammlina filiformis has a strain number of Jin Jin No. 1 and has been preserved on Jun. 16, 2022 at the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center with a registration number of CGMCC No. 40222. Colors of the cap and the stipe of the Flammlina filiformis Jin Jin No. 1 have obvious differences. Compared with a parent white Flammlina filiformis strain F0012, the Flammlina filiformis Jin Jin No. 1 has an equivalent average yield, an initial harvest period 1-2 days late, and a golden cap.

A new and unique brown variety of the mushroom Agaricus bisporus Imbach was produced by crossing the progeny of brown mushrooms and off-white hybrid mushrooms to bridging cross strains. The resultant hybrid, named RO10425, exhibits distinct and stable characteristics. Hybrid RO10425 exhibits a lighter cap color, thicker cap flesh, and rounder cap, especially when compared to available brown mushroom varieties. RO10425 also exhibits fast mushroom development and high yield.
