Analysis of POD and EST Isozyme of Three Agaricus Species

In this paper,the peroxidase(POD)and esterase(EST)isozyme of eight strains of three species(Agaricus bisporus,A.arvensis,A.blazei)had been studied.The results evidenced:(1)The POD and EST isozyme not only clearly showed the identical common isozyme bands of eight strains,but they still clearly showed the different isozyme bands among three species and among eight strains.(2)There were nearly same POD and EST isozyme bands in four commercial strains of A.bisporus,no matter they were from China or west Europe and they were white or brown.(3)The genetic similarity between A.bisporus and A.arvensis was larger then between A.bisporus and A.blazei
