Abstrakt: The mycelium of the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus was cultured on a synthetic medium with growth regulators. Best growth was observed on media with 100 ppm IAA, 200 ppm GA and 200 ppm of kinetin. Growth of terminal hyphae and the appearance of colonies differed characteristically. Auxin bio-assays showed that the content of substances in younger mycelium slowly increased during cultivation without conspicuous changes in the medium. After exogenous application of IAA the content of auxins in younger mycelium increased and the content of IAA decreased gradually in the culture medium. Gibberellin bio-assays showed their content in the mycelium fell during cultivation and while it increased in the medium. Application of GA to the medium leads to a significant increase in these substances in the young mycelium and in the medium their level remains the same. Cytokinin bio-assays showed their content to vary during cultivation. An addition of kinetin to the nutrient medium results in an increase of cytokinins in the mycelium while in the medium the level of cytokinins is maintained. Addition of one substance thus influences the levels of other endogenous regulators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
