TRAMETES QUEL. EVALUATION OF PHYSICAL FACTORS AFFECTING THE GROWTH OF FUNGI BY THEIR SPECIES

Main aim of the article is to explore evaluation of physical factors affecting the growth of fungi by their species. There is a certain group of basidiomycetes that are adapted to live only in wood. From an eco-trophic point of view, these fungi belonging to saprotrophs, biotrophs, and polytrophs are called xylotrophs. The main function of these fungi is the destruction or biological decomposition of lignocellulosic substrates. The genus Trametes belongs to the division Basidiomycota, class Basidiomycetes, subclass Homobasidiomycetidae, order Aphyllophorales, family Poriaceae (Poliporaceae). 627 species include to this genus (Trametes Fr.), including cosmopolitan representatives (Trametes versicolor (L.: Fr.) Lloyd). Representatives of this genus are well known as producers of many biologically active substances: polysaccharides, polysaccharides, glucans, glycoproteins, triterpenes, flavonoids, chitin, extracellular hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes, unsaturated fatty acids, high-quality proteins including all amino acids, vitamins, easy trace elements in the form of absorbable organic compounds.
