Abstract
The growth rate of mycelium of the tiger's milk mushroom (Lignosus rhinocerotis) at intermediate development stage was successfully increased up to 16% by the application of corona discharge through multiple needles at a steady state voltage of 5 kV generated by a Van der Graff generator, for 5 h a day, for four weeks. The same method could enhance the yield of tuber up to 56%. Myco-chemical analysis on the tuber of the corona treated group did not show any significant variation in the total flavonoid content and metabolite chromatogram pattern in comparison with that of the control groups and the reference groups. The experiment shows that the enhancement of the harvest of tuber of the tiger's milk mushroom is much more significant than the growth rate improvement of the mycelium of the same type of mushroom, as it was reported previously.
期刊介绍：
Engineering in Agriculture, Environment and Food (EAEF) is devoted to the advancement and dissemination of scientific and technical knowledge concerning agricultural machinery, tillage, terramechanics, precision farming, agricultural instrumentation, sensors, bio-robotics, systems automation, processing of agricultural products and foods, quality evaluation and food safety, waste treatment and management, environmental control, energy utilization agricultural systems engineering, bio-informatics, computer simulation, computational mechanics, farm work systems and mechanized cropping. It is an international English E-journal published and distributed by the Asian Agricultural and Biological Engineering Association (AABEA). Authors should submit the manuscript file written by MS Word through a web site. The manuscript must be approved by the author''s organization prior to submission if required. Contact the societies which you belong to, if you have any question on manuscript submission or on the Journal EAEF.
