Study on mycelial growth, and maturation, primordia formation and fruiting capacity of 15 different Shiitake mushroom [Lentinus edodes (Berk.) Sing.] isolates cultivated on 3 different sawdust. cultivating substrates was conducted at 3 different locations. The three locations were 1) Maejo Institute of Agricultural Technology (MIAT). Amphur Sansai (300-meter altitude); 2) Muang Come village, Amphur Maerim (750-meter altitude); 3) Maesa Mai Village, Amphur Maerim Z900-meter altitude), Chiang Mai, Thailand. The interaction effect between mushroom isolates and sawdust cultivating substrates was significant. The experiment revealed that 1) at MIAT, mushroom isolates F, J.2, S.4, S.2, S.1 and T cultivated on pararubber sawdust gave the highest yield and satisfied mycelial growth; 2) at Muang Come village, isolates S.Mt., F, T and T.1 cultivated on pararubber sawdust gave the best yield and mycelial growth; and 3) at Maesa Mai village, isolates S.5, S.2, T.1, T cultivated on pararubber sawdust, S.2 cultivated on mixed sawdust (pararubber: various-type, 1:11) and S.5 cultivated-type sawdust gave the best results.
