Key Points and Methods of Edible Mushroom Strain Preservation Explained in Detail
Strains are a major biological resource and the primary means of production in edible mushroom cultivation. After a superior strain has been selected and bred, its excellent traits must be kept unchanged, or changed as little and as slowly as possible, so that production performance is not reduced and it can be used in production over the long term. Therefore, strain preservation is of great significance in edible mushroom production. I. Principles of strain preservation There are many methods of strain preservation, but the principles are much the same. First, select excellent pure strains. Use the spores, spore bodies and vegetative forms of microorganisms; second, according to their physiological and biochemical properties,

Key Points and Methods for Dehydrating and Drying Shiitake Mushrooms Explained
First, if the quantity of shiitake mushrooms harvested or purchased is very large and there is not enough time to dry them the same day, they must be spread out in a cool, ventilated place and piled as thinly as possible to prevent internal heating that would affect the quality of the dried product. Second, in the early stage of drying, the temperature inside the drying oven or drying room should rise slowly and gradually, generally not exceeding 5°C per hour. If the temperature rises too quickly, the surface of the mushroom body shrinks rapidly, causing the capillaries to become blocked, which instead makes it difficult for moisture inside the mushroom body to escape. In mild cases, this causes the mushroom body to shrink and wrinkle, forming a wavy surface; in severe cases, a hard shell forms on the surface of the mushroom body, causing the gills to turn black and

How to Raise Ducks? Key Technical Points Explained
Stocking time. According to the feed resources in the orchard, orchard duck raising is divided into a period dominated by free-range stocking and a period dominated by confinement rearing.
