- Evaluation of mycelium composite materials produced by five Patagonian fungal species Mariano Aquino Maximiliano Rugolo Gerardo Robledo Francisco Kuhar Agrociencias hyphal system patagonia strains sawdust substrate Ganoderma australe Fungal agglomerates Mycelium composites consist of particulate lignocellulosic materials, e.g., sawdust from the timber industry structured as a solid matrix resulting from the mycelial growth. Many protocols have been proposed based on different strains and substrates. However, the influence of intrinsic elements, such as the structure of the hyphal system on the main parameters required by the industry still needs to be researched. The main goal of this work is to assess the performance of five Patagonian lignocellulolytic fungal species for producing mycelium composites. Strains of these species were studied in order to assess the relation between basidiome hyphal structure and the hyphal structure of mycelium-based materials. Comparisons of the hardness in the Janka scale were performed with commercial expanded polystyrene. Composites resulting from the growth of Pleurotus ostreatus, Nothophellinus andinopatagonicus and Funalia trogii successfully formed composites, showing a lower quality than Ganoderma austral. Ryvardenia cretacea in turn completely failed to colonize the substrate. The material resulting from the growth of Ganoderma australe on pine sawdust (a substrate chosen based on its local availability) is proposed as a good substitute with improved resistance. 2022 artículo científico 0717-3644 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=48575019035 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48575019035/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48575019035/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48575019035/48575019035.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48575019035/movil 10.4067/s0718-221x2022000100435 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=485 Maderas.
