Abstract


Cordyceps militaris is an insect parasitic fungus of high pharmacological and economic value. The process of artificially cultivating this fungus has been successful and is increasingly expanding, requiring strain stability. Previous research results showed that single-spore hybrid fungal strains ensure stability. In this study, ascospores from different parental sources were genotyped by MAT1-1-1 and MAT1-2-1 genes and hybridized on rice-pupa media. The morphology and fruiting body yield of 8 hybrid strains showed that hybrid CT1 and CT2 had long fruiting body morphology and dry yield of 4.4 and 5.0 g/jar, respectively. Meanwhile, the CT4 hybrid fruit body extract has cordycepin, adenosine, and total phenolic content, as well as DPPH free radical scavenging activity nearly twice as high as the CT1 and CT2 hybrids. The tyrosinase enzyme inhibitory activity of CT2 hybrid fruit body extract (59.0%) was higher than that of other hybrids. The results show that hybrid strains CT1, CT2, and CT4 are potential strains for breeding strategies to develop new strains with high yield and quality.
