INTRODUCTION
1.1 Necessity of the dissertation
All of useful microorganisms are used, the closest to
humans being mushrooms. Mushroom is an eukaryote, nonchlorophyll, heterotrophic. In the five-gender classification
system, fungi rank the third in line with plants and animals
(Tran Van Mao, 2004). The technology of breeding, cultivating
and processing mushrooms have now imported from Japan,
Taiwan and other European countries. In process of research
and production, there have been changes to suit the natural and
social conditions of Vietnam (Nguyen Huu Dong et al., 2000).
Vietnam is an agricultural country, and there are some
conditions for developing mushroom cultivation, especially in
the southern provinces. Materials source, abundant labor and
weather, the climate is almost constant throughout the year,
mushroom can be provided throughout the four seasons
(Unesco Center for Knowledge, Culture and Community
Education, 2004). In addition, Vietnam is a mountainous
country with diverse biological resources. In the rainy season,
especially there are many kinds of mushrooms growing. The
Mekong Delta is blessed with That Son mountains, cooling
climate through the year with many kinds of edible and
medicinal mushrooms are valuable but have not been
cultivated. The facing global climate change, conservation of
this precious resource is necessary to do right. Due to the above
reasons, the thesis “collecting, selecting and the studying the
cultivation of a wild edible mushroom and a wild medicinal
mushroom in the That Son region, An Giang province” was
conducted.

bodies are tumor rounded up shape, forming a rim with creamy
white canopy. Developed mushroom has accessory fruiting
form. Fruiting body has kidney-shape and concentric striated
lines which are stacked alternately like roofing tiles, pileus is
thin, smooth or lightly wizen, grows in clusters which are about
40-50cm wide. There are no fungal fimbriae and concentric
opalescent rings on cap surface. Lamella has tiny tubes whose
2
density is about 4-5 tube/mm . The tubes are round or lightly
round.

The mushroom doesn’t form a cluster and it’s soft wood
mushroom. Upper surface of the mushroom is dark brown or
black, has drain, hard bark with dark brown color and some
deep crack. The cap is initialy covered by a yellow velvet coat,
becoming darker to black with many small bulges, cracking
into small areas.Edge of pileus is yellow-brown, and young
fruiting body has yellow color inside, becoming brown rustyiron-color latterly. Based on the external characteristics, the
species is similar to Phellinus linteus, Phellinus igniarius and
Phellinus lamaensis.
4.1.3.4 Lentinus squarosolus Local name: Xoai

diameter is about 2-15cm, its upper surface is covered by light
brown bristly coat. The mushroom’s white inside. The
mushrooms’ white gills embraces thin stems. The stems are 35cm long, opaque white, covered by scale, the mushroom
doesn’t have ring and volva. L. squarosolus usually appears in
from March to November. This mushroom grows individually
or in large clusters on the trunk or punk mango. The
mushrooms grow year-round, especially after rain, thrive in the
summer with wet weather. The spore has stick-shaped.

Treated of mushrooms did not show any visual
symptoms of toxicity after using these extracts in 72 hours.
Observing mice in 14 day following, no unusual
symptoms of the mice has been noted. The results show that
high concentrated extracts of Linh Chi Tang, Van Chi, Dai,
Moc Ba Hue mushroom are devoid of any adverse effects in
mice. Next, we isolated these mushroom in order to preserve
their breed.
4.2.2 Isolation of selected mushroom in 4.2.1
PDA medium was used for isolation of mushroom in
the same temperature and time conditions. The result indicated
that PDA medium has potential for isolating Linh Chi Tang,
Thuong Hoang, Van Chi, Dai mushroom, but the medium isn’t
appropriate for isolation of Moc Ba Hue mushroom. We
sequenced ITS to identify four species correctly in next
experiment.
4.2.3 ITS sequencing, species identification
4.2.3.1 Van Chi mushroom
The ITS sequence of Van Chi mushroom, which has
length 666 bps, share 93% of the DNA sequence with some
mushroom speices in Tramates genus according to datebase on
NCBI. According to Trinh Tam Kiet’s morphological
description (2012). Initial evaluation of the collected
mushroom sample is a species in Trametes genus.
4.2.3.2 Dai mushroom
The 567bps ITS sequence of Dai mushroom is 96%
similar to IST sequence of Lentinus squarrosulus, according to
database on NCBI. Initial evaluation of the mushroom
collected was one of the Lentinus squarrosulus species.
14
According to Trinh Tam Kiet’s morphological description
(2012), we suggested that the collected mushroon in An Giang
is Lentinus squarrosulus
4.2.3.3 Linh Chi Tang mushroom
The 631bps ITS sequence of Linh Chi Tang mushroom
is 97% similar to IST sequence of Ganoderma applanatum,
according to database on NCBI. According to morphological
description of Trinh Tam Kiet (2012), we suggested the
collected mushroom sample in An Giang province is
Ganoderma applanatum speices.
4.2.3.4 Thuong Hoang mushroom
The ITS sequence of Thuong Hoang mushroom, which
has length 666 bps, share 92% of the DNA sequence with
Phellinus linteus according to datebase on NCBI. Combine
with morphological analysis, we suggested that the collected
mushroom sample is a species belong to Phellinus genus, the
mushroom is temporarily called Phellinus sp.
Based on two researches, four species of mushrooms
were selected for further study: Dai mushroom - Lentinus
squarrosolus, Linh Chi Tang mushroom Ganoderma
applanatum, Thuong Hoang mushroom Phellinus sp. and Moc
Ba Hue mushroom.

We compared some of the medicinal values, combined
with the nutritional assessment table (Table 4.2) present in the
sample, we can select the Dai mushroom and the Thuong
Hoang mushroom to carry out further experiments.
4.3.3 Determination of semi-chronic toxicity of Thuong
Hoang mushroom
Tested mice were female and male, six-weeks old, in
growth and developing stage. Mice were treated with oral dose
of 0.4g/kg of Thuong Hoang mushroom extract everyday in
month. The result showed that both of control mice and tested
mice gained body weight. Concomitantly, there was no
significant difference of weight changes between two groups of
17
mice. This was asserted that Thuong Hoang mushroom extract
didn’t effect on mice development during tested period.
Haematological parameters and biochemistry parameter
of mice before and after one month testing and result of
microbodies in liver and kidney tissue surgery in two group did
not have any unusualness.
4.3.4 Determination of anticancer effect of Thuong Hoang
mushroom Phellinus sp.
Figure 4.6: The response of K562 cells to the extracts of Phellinus
sp. Observing on the 10X magnification by inverted microscope. a)

500 µg/mL of Phellinus sp extract. c) 250 µg/mL. d) 125 µg/mL e)
62 µg/mL
After 72 hours of treating with Thuong Hoang
mushroom extract, leukemia K562 had no response to the
extract. High concentration of the extracts were used in the
experiment were 5000 µg/ml; 2500 µg/ml, 1250 µg/ml; 625
µg/ml; 312 µg/ml; 156 µg/ml and 78 µg/ml. At all
concentrations of extracts, K562 cells treated with the extracts
18
were nearly as normal as the control group. This result showed
that Phellinus sp., did not inhibit the proliferation of K562
cells.

concentration of 16 μg ml of the extract c) 31 μg ml d) 62.5 e) 125
μg mL f) 250 μg mL g) 500 μg mL h) of 1000 μg mL.
For colon cancer cell HCT116, after 72 hours of
treatment with Phellinus sp mushroom extracts, the cells
19
proliferation was inhibited in dose-dependent manner. Result
showed that inhibition effect of Phellinus sp extracts were
observed clearly at concentration of 16 µg/mL. Concentration
of 250 µg/mL and higher concentration showed significantly
inscreasing anticancer effect of the mushroom. Confluence of
HCT 116 in medium containing concentrations of 16 µg/mL;
31 µg/mL; 62.5 µg/mL; 125 µg/mL; 250 µg/mL; 500 µg/mL
and 1000 µg/mL of the extracts were 50%, 40%, 45%, 40%,
20%, 15% and 10%, alternately.
The results of this study were consistent with those of
other researcher with effect of the mushroom on leukemia cell
lines K562 and colon cancer cell line HCT116 (Alla, 2010; Ji
Hun 2015). The different changes caused by Phellinus sp
mushroom depend on type of cell treated. Phellinus sp. impact
can cause apoptosis (case of HCT116) or support apoptosis in
cells (case K562).
4.4 Research for complete procedure of growing selected
mushroom
The research on mycelium speard on culture medium
was performed to determine how large mycelium speard in 3, 5
and 7 days in agar slant tubes. On propagation and growing
medium, we determined how long the mycelium of Lentinus
squarrosulus and Phellinus sp spread for 50% and 100% in the
medium. Measure data was processed by SAS 9.1.3 softwave
and average results were performed in table using DUNCAN
method with 95% confidence intervals.
