Abstract: The mycelium biomass of Poria cocos was determined and compared in normal conditions of both rotating and static magnetic fields under submerged culture in this study. The results showed that the Poria cocos hypha growth is promoted by the 0.3 milli Gauss magnetic field, and the effects of the static magnetic field are more evident than the rotating one.

Key words: Poria cocos, magnetic field, submerged culture, mycelium biomass, comparison
