From the paper

Abstract

A new hybrid strain of Pleurotus eryngii (eryngii mushroom)has its fruiting body in the form of fine stick shape, with a conservative number of CGMCC NO.1820, a selective breeding method of said strain is also provided, which comprises the steps: selecting the Pleurotus eryngii No. 9 and Pleurotus eryngii No. 11 as its parent strains for hybridization separating monospore from either of the parent strains respectively picking up the hyphae of monokaryon and cultivating them and matching pairs for hybridization and choosing and cultivating the new hybrid strain, etc. The fruiting body of the present new hybrid strain of Pleurotus eryngii has a distinct shape unlike its parent strains.
