Introduction to the Ganoderma New Strain Satellite No. 2 Variety

"Satellite No. 2 Ganoderma" was sent into space aboard China's recoverable satellite launched as "961020" for a 15-day journey, where it was exposed to large doses of ultraviolet radiation and weightlessness in the cosmos, thereby producing genetic mutations; after screening and cultivation trials, a new high-quality, high-yield Ganoderma strain was selected. Compared with a Ganoderma strain that was not carried into space (the control strain), "Satellite No. 2" can increase fruiting body yield by 75.3%, its high-quality product rate reaches 88.9%, its average fermentation rate is 2.57%, and its cellulase activity

"Satellite No. 2 Ganoderma" was sent into space aboard China's recoverable satellite launched as "961020" for a 15-day journey, where it was exposed to large doses of ultraviolet radiation and weightlessness in the cosmos, thereby producing genetic mutations; after screening and cultivation trials, a new high-quality, high-yield Ganoderma strain was selected.

Compared with a Ganoderma strain that was not carried into space (the control strain), "Satellite No. 2" can increase fruiting body yield by 75.3%, its high-quality product rate reaches 88.9%, its average fermentation rate is 2.57%, and its cellulase activity is increased by 33%. Testing by the Physical and Chemical Testing Center of the Shenyang Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences showed that the total amino acid content of "Satellite No. 2" Ganoderma reached 10.315%, an increase of 96.4% over the control strain, with all 16 amino acids showing significant increases, the smallest increase being 47.48% and the largest being 163.94%. This scientific research achievement has reached the domestic leading level.
