Abstract: Cultivation characteristics of two Cordyceps sinensis vegetatives including Cordyceps kyushuensis and Cordyceps militaris were compared with each other by solid culture method. The results showed that both of them vary obviously in colony diameter in different media and are more selective to carbon than nitrogen. The suitable temperatures for their growth are both between 20℃ to 28℃.

Key words: solid culture, vegetative, Cordyceps kyushuensis, Cordyceps militaris
