Growth rates of dikaryotic mycelia of Lentinula edodes #5 grown on basal sawdust medium containing different concentrations of cryoprotectants.
The mycelial growth of the longest and the shortest distances from the top surface of the test sawdust medium was measured with a caliper to obtain the average of the values.
The mycelial growth rate of cultures in each condition was determined by averaging the values obtained by three replicates after calculating the growth rate of each culture based on this method. Vertical line, standard error. A , 0% ethylene glycol; , 5% ethylene glycol; , 10% ethylene glycol. B , 0% glycerol; , 5% glycerol; , 10% glycerol; , 15% glycerol
