Sažetak
Submerged batch and repeated feed batch cultivation techniques were used for mycelia cultivation and polysaccharide production of Ganoderma lucidum. In the contrary with most of the publication using various Asiatic Ganoderma lucidum sp. the growth of the strain Ga.l 4 (BFWS), originally isolated from the Slovenian forest, is much faster. The results between the batch and repeated fed batch cultivation are compared to the polysaccharide production in batch cultivation. While from the aspects of the biomass production in contrary the best results were obtained in repeated fed batch after 44 days where 12.4 g/l of dry fungal biomass was obtained.
