| Summary: | <i>Pholiota adiposa</i> is a macrofungi that is rich in nutrients and has a delicious taste. Eating more can improve human immunity and inhibit cancer. However, the <i>P. adiposa</i> yield is low and cannot meet market demand. Therefore, strain improvement was carried out by exploring the mechanism of stress adaptation in <i>P. adiposa</i>. In addition, fermentation of the four common grains by <i>P. adiposa</i> mycelia increased their nutrient content and improved their antioxidant capacity. The results revealed that the growth of the mycelium was greatest when sucrose was used as the carbon source at 25 °C. At 35 °C, the MDA content and cellulase enzyme activity of the mycelia decreased by 27.6% and 40.8%, respectively, from 2 to 4 days, and the SOD, CAT, and GR enzyme activities increased by 31.6%, 49.2%, and 1.2%, respectively. The fermentation results revealed that the soluble protein content, reducing sugar content, and DPPH free radical scavenging ability of the fermented grains were significantly greater than those of the unfermented grains. This study can be used to cultivate macrofungi with environmental adaptability and provides a basis for the utilization of biological waste and increased food nutrition. |
