(69) The total test durations (from sowing to the first harvest) and yields of the two varieties of Morchella were counted, and he statistical results are shown in Table 4.

(70) TABLE-US-00004 TABLE 4 The total test durations and yields of different varieties of Morchella Variety Total test duration/d Yield kg/m.sup.2 Med-6 90 1.41 Med-7 75 1.12 Note: Med-6: after 3 days after sowing, a bag for exogenous nutrition was placed, 7 days after placing the bag for the exogenous nutrient, the mycelium culture stage was entered, which lasted for 50 days, then the primordium induction was performed for 5 days, the differentiation and maturation were performed for 25 days, and the total duration was 90 days.

(71) It could be seen from Table 4 that the growth time and yield of Morchella were related to the variety, the growth time of Med-6 was longer, but the yield is higher, while the growth time of Med-7 is shorter and the yield is less.

Embodiment 4

(72) In the present embodiment, the cultivation methods of Morchella sextelata and Morchella esculenta were studied, respectively, and the process was as follows:

(73) 1. The Effect of the Thickness of the Culture Substrate on the Test Duration and Yield of Morchella

(74) Compared with the cultivation process of Embodiment 3, the difference was that the coverage thicknesses of the culture substrate in step (2) were set to 1 cm, 2 cm and 3 cm, respectively. The total test duration and yield of Morchella cultivated under different coverage thicknesses were counted, and the statistical results were shown in Table 5.

(75) TABLE-US-00005 TABLE 5 The total test duration and yield of Morchella under different coverage thicknesses Coverage Total test Yield Variety thickness/cm duration/d kg/m.sup.2 Med-6 3 cm 100 d 1.38 2 cm 92 d 1.65 1 cm 87 d 1.72 Med-7 3 cm 89 d 1.24 2 cm 78 d 1.47 1 cm 75 d 1.70

(76) It could be seen from Table 5, the two varieties of Morchella showed that the thicker the coverage, the lower the yield. This was because when the coverage of the culture substrate was thick, the differentiation was delayed, the fruiting was delayed, and the yield was not increased. Therefore, in production, a covering thickness of 1 cm was sufficient to completely cover the strain.

(77) 2. The Effect of Sowing Method on the Test Duration and Yield of Morchella

(78) Compared with the cultivation process of Embodiment 3, the difference was that, the sowing methods in step (2) were set as furrow sowing (a depth of the furrow sowing was 5 cm and a spacing was 20 cm) and broadcast sowing, and the seeding rate was consistent with the Embodiment 3. The total test duration and yield of Morchella cultivated under different sowing methods were counted, and the statistical results were shown in Table 6.

(79) TABLE-US-00006 TABLE 6 Total test durations and yield of Morchella under different sowing methods Variety Sowing method Total test duration/d Yield kg/m.sup.2 Med-6 Furrow sowing 90 1.43 Broadcast sowing 85 1.22 Med-7 Furrow sowing 75 1.31 Broadcast sowing 69 1.24

(80) From Table 6, it could be seen that when the two varieties of Morchella adopted furrow sowing, the test duration increased and the yield also increased, when adopting the broadcast sowing, the test duration was shortened, and the yield was also reduced. This was because furrow sowing was about 5 days later than broadcast sowing in primordium differentiation. Based on an overall consideration, it was recommended to use broadcast sowing in production.

(81) 3. Effect of Transformation Temperature of the Exogenous Nutrition on the Test Duration and Yield of Morchella

(82) Compared with the cultivation process of Embodiment 3, the difference was that the temperatures of the culture substrate in step (3) were set to 3 C., 5 C., 7 C., 9 C., and 12 C., respectively. The total test duration and yield of Morchella cultivated under different transformation temperatures of the exogenous nutrition were counted, and the statistical results were shown in Table 7.

(83) TABLE-US-00007 TABLE 7 The total test duration and yield of Morchella under different transformation temperatures of the exogenous nutrition Variety Temperature/ C. Total test duration/d Yield kg/m.sup.2 Med-6 3 95 1.05 5 92 1.72 7 88 1.78 9 90 1.70 12 90 1.31 Med-7 3 85 1.28 5 75 1.78 7 78 1.74 9 80 1.65 12 82 1.20

(84) It could be seen from Table 7 that the two varieties of Morchella in the range of (5-9 C.) for the transformation of the exogenous nutrition, the test duration was short, the yield was high, when the temperature was at below 5 C. or higher than 9 C., the yield was lower.

(85) 4. Effect of Differentiation Temperature for the Primordium Induction on the Test Duration and Yield of Morchella

(86) Compared with the cultivation process of Embodiment 3, the difference was that in step (5), the temperatures of the substrate after mycelium maturation were set to 2 C., 4 C., 6 C. and 8 C., respectively. The total test duration and yield of Morchella cultivated at different differentiation temperatures for the primordium induction were counted, and the statistical results were shown in

(87) TABLE-US-00008 TABLE 8 The total test duration and yield of Morchella under different temperatures for the primordium induced differentiation Variety Temperature/ C. Total test duration/d Yield kg/m.sup.2 Med-6 2 86 1.65 4 85 1.74 6 92 1.67 8 95 1.30 Med-7 2 76 1.62 4 78 1.64 6 80 1.50 8 82 1.27

(88) It could be seen from Table 8 that the two varieties of Morchella were performed primordium induced differentiation in the range of (2-4 C.), the test duration was short, and the yield was high, when the temperature was higher than 4 C., the test duration increased significantly, but the yield changed little.
