Abstract: Three di-mon mating strains (NN22,QS29 and QQ6) of Lentinula edodes were calcium-enriched in PDY medium with Ca2+ concentration range from 0 to 10 mg/ml. The optimization of cultivation conditions of strain NN22 was performed and analyzed by gel electrophoresis of esterase isoenzyme. The results showed that the highest Ca2+ intake of strain NN22 is obtained within 20 days at 25 ℃ and initial pH 7.0 in adding 4 mg/ml Ca2+ PDY. Under the optimized cultivation conditions, Ca2+ content and polysaccharide content of the strain NN22 reach 9.57 mg/g and 3.36 mg/g, respectively. The results also showed that along with the Ca2+ concentration enhancement, the esterase isozymes activities of strain NN22 of Lentinula edodes reduce obviously.
