The Horticulture Research Institute of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences used single-spore hybridization, single-spore systematic selection and molecular marker-assisted selection techniques to breed the low-temperature-tolerant, high-quality, high-yield new brown button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) variety "Zongxiu No. 1" and the new white button mushroom variety "Yingxiu No. 1", which have passed the first national batch of edible fungi variety certification. The new brown button mushroom variety "Zongxiu No. 1" has a cap surface of natural brown, with white stipe and flesh. The mushroom quality is excellent, the fruiting bodies are round and neat, the caps are thick and firm, and not sunken at the top; the flavor is delicious and the texture is tender. Because its cap is naturally brown, it requires no

The Horticulture Research Institute of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences used single-spore hybridization, single-spore systematic selection and molecular marker-assisted selection techniques to breed the low-temperature-tolerant, high-quality, high-yield new brown button mushroom variety "Zongxiu No. 1" and the new white button mushroom variety "Yingxiu No. 1", which have passed the first national batch of edible fungi variety certification.

The new brown button mushroom variety "Zongxiu No. 1" has a cap surface of natural brown, with white stipe and flesh. The mushroom quality is excellent, the fruiting bodies are round and neat, the caps are thick and firm, and not sunken at the top; the flavor is delicious and the texture is tender. Because its cap is naturally brown, it requires no chemical color-preserving or bleaching agents, and has a long shelf life. This variety has fast mycelial growth and high yield; under the same conditions, it produces mushrooms 2~3 days earlier than white mushroom varieties, with neat flushes, and the yield reaches 9-12 kg/sq m. It has a wide fruiting temperature range, and in particular its low-temperature fruiting ability is stronger than that of conventional white mushrooms. "Yingxiu No. 1" white low-temperature-tolerant button mushroom has the advantages of thick caps, nearly hemispherical shape, no sunken top, resistance to thin-skin opening, thick stipe and slow browning, and has strong low-temperature fruiting ability.
