Ganoderma lucidum was grown in several culture media, using four different concentrations of inoculum. The mycelia grew well in the potato dextrose medium at pH 5 and 25 C, followed by malt extract, Kirk medium + molasses, and Kirk medium + glucose. The yield of mycelial biomass (dry weight basis) in potato dextrose medium after 15 days was about 1.59 g/100 ml; in malt extract, 0.91 g/100 ml; in Kirk molasses, 0.68 g/100 ml; and in Kirk glucose was 0.38 g/100 ml. Mycelial growth of G. lucidum was significantly higher in case of 5 to 15 ml inoculum concentration.
