The Phosphatome of Medicinal and Edible Fungus Wolfiporia cocos

Current Microbiology, 2017
Wolfiporia cocos is an important medicinal and edible fungus that grows in association with pine trees, and its dried sclerotium has been used as a traditional medicine in China for centuries. However, the commercial production of W. cocos sclerotia is currently limited by shortages in pine wood resources.

Indoor Cultivation and Cultural Characteristics of Wolfiporia cocos Sclerotia Using Mushroom Culture Bottles

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2006
We newly developed an indoor cultivation technique for Wolfiporia cocos (Wolf) Ryvarden et Gilbertson (Syn. Poria cocos Wolf), not with soil, but using mushroom culture bottles with pine logs, and clarified some cultural characteristics of sclerotia in the laboratory. To determine the optimum conditions for sclerotia growth, the weight of sclerotia and

Fruit body formation and intra-species DNA polymorphism in Japanese Wolfiporia cocos strains

Journal of Natural Medicines, 2022
Poria, the dried sclerotium of Wolfiporia cocos, is a medicinal mushroom that is widely used in traditional Japanese medicine. The fruit body of W. cocos is rarely found in the natural environment in Japan, therefore an optimized technique for fruit body formation is essential for producing new strains through crossbreeding and for biological research.

Evaluating the basidiomycetes Poria medula-panis and Wolfiporia cocos for xylanase production

Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2001
Xylanase, oxidative enzymes and iron-binding compounds were detected in the filtrates of Wolfiporia cocos and Poria medula-panis grown in wheat bran liquid medium. Xylanase and iron-binding compounds were produced at high levels by the brown-rot fungus (BR) W. cocos and at low levels by the white-rot fungus (WR) P. medula-panis.

New Lanostane-Type Triterpenes with Anti-Inflammatory Activity from the Epidermis of Wolfiporia cocos

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2022
A chemical study on the epidermis of cultivated edible mushroom Wolfiporia cocos resulted in the isolation and identification of 46 lanostane triterpenoids, containing 17 new compounds (1-17). An experimental determination of their anti-inflammatory activity showed that poricoic acid GM (39) most strongly inhibited NO production in LPS-induced RAW264.7

137Cs and 40K activities and total K distribution in the sclerotia of the Wolfiporia cocos fungus from China

Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2021
The activity concentration of 137Cs and 40K and total K content in the sclerotia of the Chinese medicinal fungus Wolfiporia cocos collected mainly from Yunnan province of China during the period 2013-2015 were investigated. W. cocos in Yunnan is collected from the wild and is cultivated in field conditions and the wood substrate used is derived from ...

Correlation between oxalic acid production and copper tolerance in Wolfiporia cocos

International Biodeterioration & Biodegradation, 2000
The increased interest in copper-based wood preservatives has hastened the need for understanding why some fungi are able to attack copper-treated wood. Due in part to accumulation of oxalic acid by brown-rot fungi and visualization of copper oxalate crystals in wood decayed by known copper-tolerant decay fungi, oxalic acid has been implicated in ...

Effect of revulsive cultivation on the yield and quality of newly formed sclerotia in medicinal Wolfiporia cocos

Journal of Natural Medicines, 2014
Wolfiporia cocos is a well-known medicinal mushroom widely used in China, Japan and other Asiatic countries for its various therapeutic effects. 'Revulsive cultivation' is a newly developed method for promoting sclerotia growth in W. cocos field cultivation in China. In this report, we have systematically examined the effects of 'revulsive cultivation'

Genetic diversity of Chinese Wolfiporia cocos cultivars revealed by phenotypic traits and ISSR markers

Mycological Progress, 2015
Wolfiporia cocos, a well-known medicinal fungus, has been widely used in China and other Asian countries due to its various therapeutic value. In this study, genetic diversity among 22 Chinese W. cocos cultivars were assessed using phenotypic traits and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR).
