Abstract
Pleurotus ferulae Lenzi is one of the aluable and medical fungus, the author studied the production of polysaccharide and mycelial growth of pleurotus ferulae lenzi in the submerged culture. The results showed that sucrose was the best carbon source that pleurotus ferulae lenzi could use, with it in the culture medium, we got more extracellular polysaccharide and the highest dry matter weight of mycelia. When using glucose as carbon source the polysaccharide increase quicker at first, but the production of polysaccharide was lower than sucrose as the carbon source. The mycelium pellets was not completed when the carbon source was amylomaltose. Galactosylglucose could not be used as the carbon source.
