A system for growing fungi, the system comprising a nutritive vehicle, a porous material, an administrable space, fungal tissue comprising fungal hyphae having a growth pattern, the fungal tissue connecting said nutritive vehicle to said porous material to said administrable space, wherein the fungal tissue within said space defines at least one successive fungal material layer; and a chemically or physically altered separated portion of fungal material, the separated portion separated from said fungal tissue.

The invention relates to methods of cultivating ectomycorrhizal fungi, the method comprising incubating ectomy corrhizal 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.

A monokaryotic mycelium sheet producing system for creating a sheet of monokaryotic mycelial material. The mycelium sheet producing system includes a culture unit, a spore stock unit, a plating unit, a section unit, a sub-plating unit, an expanding unit and a colonization unit. The culture unit prepares a monokaryon culture. The spore stock unit grows a plurality of fruit bodies in sterile laboratory conditions to create a spore stock. The plating unit performs a peroxide-based spore rescue and a plating process. The section unit is adaptable to section robust hyphae. The sub-plating unit sub-plates and expands the robust hyphae onto a spawn grain master. The expanding unit subsequently expands the spawn grain master into appropriate production of spawn volume. The colonization unit is adaptable to perform a subsequent colonization of mycelium substrate thereby creating a substantially defect free sheet of mycelium.
