Abstract

There were investigated the total carotenoid content in fruiting bodies of 50 species of Basidiomycetes, 27 of which are belonging to order Polyporales and 23 to order Agaricales. The highest total carotenoid content in Ganoderma applanatum, Fistulina hepatica and Laetiporus sulfureus сarpophorus was found out. The dynamics of growth and accumulation of carotenoids in the mycelium and cultural filtrate of 24 strains of 8 basidiomycetes species were studied. Promising for the further research to develop the methods for carotenoids mycelial and extracellular origin strains of species Fistulina hepatica and Laetiporus sulphureus were selected.
