| dc.description.abstract | Light is an important factor for the growth of many forms of life including mushroom. Ganoderma lucidum is a white rot wood-degrading basidiomycete that typically grow o logs. To assess the effect of illumination condition, this paper highlighted the effect of light emitting diode on the mycelia growth, biomass production and antioxidant activities of G. lucidum. Among the different set of LED, G. lucidum recorded the highest mean mycelia diameter in flourescent light condition with a mean of 76.67 mm. On the contrary, blue LED condition recorded the lowest mean mycelia diameter with a mean of 62.33 mm after 3 days of incubation. In terms of mycelial biomass, G. lucidum favors red LED condition which exerted the highest mycelial yield of 7.20g, while florescent light condition recorded the lowest mycelial yield with a mean of 4.14g after 15 days of incubation. In terms of DPPH radical scavenging activity and total phenolic content, alternating light and dark condition exerted highest radical scavenging activity of 84.80% and highest TPC of 146.29 GAEg/ sample. Therefore, different illumination conditions are evident to have an effect not only on the growth of G. lucidum but also on enhancing its antioxidant property. | |
