Abstract:
The mycelia obtained from somatic tissues (basidiocarps) and basidiospores were irradiated with gama rays from 60Co - source and +5C from synchrotron AVF. The LG50 doses were determined >=100 Krad and =50 Krad, respectively. The fruitful cultivations from fragmenting inoculate were carried out for screening and selections of new mutants with high yields and rich in bioactive substances.
