I agree.
The best term I can think of to replace the commercial use of the word 'strain' is BRAND.

hello i was wondering about this strain its called the "golden mammoth" and it seems like this is the only sight that has them which makes me weary about its legitimacy... and 8-10" tall? and 10"(inch) caps seem a little outrageous...
this is the sight im not using this link to advertise, just for inquiry.

Hi. Sorry for the intrusion and please take all that i say IMHO. Thank you. I have been growing PE and 10+ other strains(lol) for about 6 years now. I don't post much because honestly I found everything I needed back in the day and have been quietly experimenting. In addition I don't have the technical background and know only what I have read here and what I have gathered in experience. I received my PE from Hawk's in about '04. I was so excited because the 1st flush, which I did in a large tub, was fantastic and ALL of the mushrooms were very tall, thick and looked just like they were suppose to. They looked like 'classic PE'. They were also very strong(not just MHO but that of other regulars as well). I was also so excited because about half printed. I have had mutations that look like regular mushrooms but it is rare and they were always surrounded by a sea of dicks . I do have a print of one such mushroom and it is labeled carefully .I have not attempted anything with that print. Fast forward 5 years. They still look just like they did the 1st time. The only change is a mild improvement in their spore dropping properties. They are still super F'n strong. I will be glad to give you guys a few prints and let you be the judge. This is not an attempt to change any ones mind and certainly I do not qualify to enter your strain/brand discussion. Thanks again.

Hey Apoon (and Cervantes),
I just wanted to post some info about the term strain and it's use in mycology. This post is meant to put this discussion to bed. It's like I mentioned in regards to genotype, land-race (area of origin) and on occasion as phenotype: that is how a species strain is distinguished in all manner of organisms.
Apoon, please re-read what I wrote and the thread I linked to goes into more detail and explanations.
I like Cervantes' idea of the term "brand". Although that refers to a title like GM or Nike, not a specific pair of Nike sneakers. Maybe 'cultures' would be a more fitting term? Like the Ralphsters "brand" offers many different P.cubensis "cultures" (interspecies cross like PE or B+) and also offers P.cubensis "strains" (land-race genotypes like the African or Ecuador). Just a thought, what do you think Cervantes?
And Apoon, below is info which should help clear up your confusion, and the confusion you refer to. I agree that educated people should do their best to dispel misinformation, this post is my last attempt to do so in this thread...Quote:
Apoon said...just because people misuse the word "strain" doesn't really make it right for educated people to continue to do so. IMHO, it continues the confusion
"Use of molecular markers to differentiate between commercial strains of the button mushroom Agaricus bisporus" http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/119020455/abstract
Quote:
Abstract Agaricus bisporus is an edible basidiomycete cultivated industrially for food production. Different spawn and mushroom producers use genetically related A. bisporus strains frequently marketed as different products. In this paper we show that the use of suitable molecular markers reveals the high level of genetic homology of commercial strains of A. bisporus, and allows, at the same time, to distinguish between them. In the course of this work, a molecular marker potentially linked to the agronomic character 'mushroom weight' has been identified by bulked segregant analysis.
"Advances in genetic analysis and biotechnology of the cultivated button mushroom, Agaricus bisporus" http://www.springerlink.com/content/v6512h69f7tud95m/
Quote:
Abstract: During the last decade several major breakthroughs have been achieved in mushroom biotechnology, which greatly enhanced classical mushroom breeding. DNA-based technologies such as restriction fragment length polymorphisms and randomly amplified polydisperse DNA sequences have allowed for a measure of genetic diversity, for the isolation of homokaryons, for the determination of inheritance of nuclear and mitochondrial markers, and for the production of a genetic linkage map. The recent availability of ready-to-use and affordable DNA technologies has resulted in a substantial increase in the number of Agaricus bisporus genes that have been identified and characterized. A major breakthrough was achieved in 1996 when the first successful and stable transformation system of A. bisporus was reported. Together, the availability of an increasing number of known genes and the possibility to produce transgenic mushrooms will result in a better understanding of the molecular, physiological and biochemical processes that are essential for mushroom production, shelf life and quality aspects such as flavor, texture and disease resistance. Some potential targets for strain improvement are discussed, such as the genes involved in brown discoloration, substrate utilization, carbon and nitrogen metabolism, and fruit body development.
"Modern aspects of mushroom culture technology" http://www.springerlink.com/content/q3m5lx9mfu942jea/
Quote:
Abstract: The production and culture of new species of mushrooms is increasing. The breeding of new strains has significantly improved, allowing the use of strains with high yield and resistance to diseases, increasing productivity and diminishing the use of chemicals for pest control. The improvement and development of modern technologies, such as computerized control, automated mushroom harvesting, preparation of compost, production of mushrooms in a non-composted substrate, and new methods of substrate sterilization and spawn preparation, will increase the productivity of mushroom culture. All these aspects are crucial for the production of mushrooms with better flavor, appearance, texture, nutritional qualities, and medicinal properties at low cost. Mushroom culture is a biotechnological process that recycles ligninocellulosic wastes, since mushrooms are food for human consumption and the spent substrate can be used in different ways.
"Quantitative Trait Loci Controlling Vegetative Growth Rate in the Edible Basidiomycete Pleurotus ostreatus" http://aem.asm.org/cgi/content/abstract/68/3/1109
Quote:
Abstract: Mycelium growth rate is a quantitative characteristic that exhibits continuous variation. This trait has applied interest, as growth rate is correlated with production yield and increased advantage against competitors. In this work, we studied growth rate variation in the edible basidiomycete Pleurotus ostreatus growing as monokaryotic or dikaryotic mycelium on Eger medium or on wheat straw. Our analysis resulted in identification of several genomic regions (quantitative trait loci [QTLs]) involved in the control of growth rate that can be mapped on the genetic linkage map of this fungus. In some cases monokaryotic and dikaryotic QTLs clustered at the same map position, indicating that there are principal genomic areas responsible for growth rate control. The availability of this linkage map of growth rate QTLs can help in the design of rational strain breeding programs based on genomic information.
"Use of intersimple sequence repeats markers to develop strain-specific SCAR markers for Lentinula edodes" http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/118603304/abstract
Quote:
Abstract: Although Lentinula edodes is the second most important cultivated mushroom worldwide, most industrially cultivated strains have been identified only through traditional phenotypic analysis. Here, we report for the first time the use of sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers for strain differentiation. SCAR markers were created by first generating and sequencing single intersimple sequence repeats fragments, and then designing primers based on these sequences to amplify strain-specific fragments of a certain size. One SCAR primer pair, ISL450F/R7 (amplifying a band of c. 450 bp), was designed to identify one strain of L. edodes (strain No. 7). The SCAR primer pair was then used to correctly amplify the single unique fragment from DNA samples taken from a total of 85 strains representing three separate species. Our data provide the foundation for a precise and rapid PCR-based strain-diagnostic system for L. edodes.
"Strain improvement in the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus" http://www.springerlink.com/content/v35546312w52m274/
Quote:
Abstrct: Early attempts at genetic improvement in the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus (Lange) Imbach were empirical, for little was understood of its natural breeding system. The mushroom is now known to be a secondarily homothallic species with a single multiallelic mating-type factor. This better understanding makes it possible to evaluate those breeding methods previously used and to suggest alternatives.
Strain selection alone based on single spores, multispores or tissue culture may give improvement in the short term but it is unlikely to be as effective as methods involving controlled crossing. Mixing fertile strains may produce hybrids but it is difficult to identify them. It is better to use non-fertile isolates because only hybrids fruit. The earlier recognition of hybrids can be achieved using markers which are expressed in culture and genetic resistances may be especially useful in this respect.
There is also a possible role for other Agaricus species which may be grown commercially and are more amenable to genetic manipulation than is A. bisporus.
"Strain typing of Lentinula edodes by random amplified polymorphic DNA assay" http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/119249318/abstract?CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0
Quote:
Abstract: AbstractSingle 10-base primers were used to generate randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers in the shiitake mushroom, Lentinula edodes. Seven primers produced polymorphisms in all 15 strains tested, producing 12%u201319 bands ranging from 0.34 to 2.52 kb. Thirteen of the 15 strains had unique DNA fingerprints, whereas L. edodes ATCC 28759 and ATCC 28760 exhibited identical RAPD profiles for all the primers. Molecular-genetic markers obtained with the RAPD assay can be used to differentiate strains of L. edodes and have potential applications in mushroom breeding and strain improvement programs.
"RAPD discrimination of Agaricus bisporus mushroom cultivars" http://www.springerlink.com/content/yhfrky4evktuemw6/
Quote:
Abstact: Cultivars of the white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus are difficult to differentiate, which has made strain protection problematic for this crop species. We have used RAPDs to discriminate between 26 strains of A. bisporus, 24 of which were commercial cultivars, and to characterise the genetic relatedness of these strains. Using 20 primers, 211 RAPD markers were identified and used in hierarchical cluster, patristic distance and parsimony analyses. All strains could be differentiated using the aggregated primer data. Although no one primer could differentiate all 26 strains, several individual primers yielded unique fingerprints for a variety of strains. The greatest differences (up to 28% variation) were observed in comparisons with or between two wild collections of A. bisporus. Quondam cultivars, commercial brown and off-white varieties proved more variable than the widely grown 'hybrid' types. Of the 15 hybrid varieties analysed, only one differed substantially (20% or more variable). The patristic and parsimony analyses both demonstrated the gross similarity of the hybrids, many of which appear to be essentially derived varieties from two original hybrid cultivars. RAPD analyses can assist mushroom strain identification and could play a role in the protection of novel cultivars.

Chromosomal abnormalities associated with strain degeneration in the cultivated mushroom,Agaricus bisporus. Fungal Genetics and Biology20,299%u2013241. Commercially grown strains of the button mushroom,Agaricus bisporus,on occasion produce sectors that display undesirable phenotypes. Such sectors show altered compost colonization, have reduced yield, and produce inferior quality mushrooms. The current study compared isolates of eight irreversible sectors to the original cultivator (U1) from which they arose. Gene-specific and anonymous DNA probes were used to identify RFLPs and chromosomal differences (CHEF analyses) between the U1 sectors and the normal U1 cultivar. A number of differences were noted including loss of heterozygosity at specific loci, deheterokaryotization, somatic recombination, chromosomal loss, chromosomal length polymorphisms, possible chromosomal translocations, and changes in copy number of the ribosomal DNA repeat.
"Mating-type genes for basidiomycete strain improvement in mushroom farming" http://www.springerlink.com/content/3nwap13e6e7cud74/
Quote:
Abstract: Mushroom production is dependent on the quality of the spawn used to inoculate the cultures. In order to produce high-quality spawn, breeding programs for strains resistant to certain diseases and able to form high-quality fruit bodies under standard growth conditions are necessary. The investigation of the molecular basis for mating provides access to the use of mating-type genes in order to facilitate breeding. For research purposes, two mushroom-forming homobasidiomycetes have been used due to their easy cultivation and sexual propagation on defined minimal media: Schizophyllum commune and Coprinus cinereus. The mating-type genes control formation of the dikaryon from two haploid strains. Only the dikaryon is fertile and able to form mushrooms under the right environmental conditions. These genes are now used in mating-type-assisted breeding programs for economically important mushrooms, especially the white button mushroom, Agaricus bisporus, and the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus, aiming at high-yield and high-quality standard mushroom production. Most mushroom species posses two mating-type loci that control their breeding. The genes encoded in the A loci lead to the formation of transcription factors that belong to the class of homeodomain proteins. Active transcription factors are formed by heterodimerization of two proteins of different allelic specificities. In nature, this is only the case if two cells of different mating type have fused to combine the different proteins in one cytoplasm. While fusion in homobasidiomycetes is found irrespectively of mating type, exchange of nuclei between mating mycelia is dependent on the products of the B mating-type loci. The B genes form a pheromone and receptor system that enables the fungi to initiate nuclear migration. The molecular details of the two genetic systems controlling breeding in basidiomycetes are presented in this review.
"Inheritance of Strain Instability (Sectoring) in the Commercial Button Mushroom, Agaricus bisporus" http://aem.asm.org/cgi/content/abstract/60/7/2384
Quote:
Abstract: The button mushroom, Agaricus bisporus, is a commercially important cultivated filamentous fungus. During the last decade, the button mushroom industry has depended mainly on two strains (or derivatives of these two strains). Using one of these highly successful strains (strain U1) we examined the phenomenon of strain instability, specifically, the production of irreversible sectors. Three "stromatal" and three "fluffy" sectors were compared with a healthy type U1 strain and with a wild-collected isolate. Compost colonization and fruit body morphology were examined. The main objective of this study, however, was to examine the meiotic stability of the sectored phenotype. Single basidiospores were isolated and subjected to a grain bioassay in which the ability to produce sectors was measured. Our results were as follows: (i) basidiospore cultures obtained from a wild-collected isolate showed no tendency to produce sectors; (ii) approximately 5% of the basidiospore cultures obtained from healthy type U1 strains produced irreversible sectors in the grain bioassay; (iii) the five primary sectors examined produced basidiospore cultures, half of which produced normal-looking growth in the grain bioassay and half of which produced some degree of sectoring; and (iv) the one sectored isolate that represented the F2 generation gave ratios similar to the 1:1 ratio observed for the F1 cultures.

Quote:
Abstract: Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis is based on selective PCR (polymerase chain reaction) amplification of genomic DNA restriction fragments. The present study was performed to: (1) assess the extent of AFLP variation among major cultivated strains of Lentinula edodes (the shii-take mushroom) in Japan; (2) evaluate the usefulness of AFLP as genetic marker for typing the cultivated strains; and (3) infer the genetic relatedness among them. Six AFLP primer pairs detected a total of 304 DNA fragments in a sample of 13 cultivated strains for wood log cultivation and 2 strains for sawdust cultivation, of which 179 DNA fragments (58.9% of detected fragments) were polymorphic between two or more strains. These polymorphic DNA fragments could differentiated all of the cultivated strains. Cluster analysis and principle coordinate analysis based on AFLP data showed two distinct groups; one group was composed of the strains in which fruiting occurred during the middle to low temperature period from autumn to next spring under outdoor wood log cultivation, and the other strains in which fruiting could be induced in the summer under outdoor cultivation and strains for sawdust cultivation under indoor air-controlled condition.

"Strain Improvment" http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/whri/research/mushroomresearch/strain_improvement/
Quote:
The industry has a continuing need for new and improved varieties with well-defined characteristics. Genetic diversity is limited in Agaricus bisporus, so improvements can best be made by exploiting the diversity present in the genus Agaricusor by using molecular breeding. The R&D programme comprises three elements 1) the improvement and exploitation of transformation using both homologous and heterologous markers 2) a molecular analysis of species relatedness and 3) cloning and characterisation of genes central to development.
- Develop and optimise transformation technologies for the Agaricus bisporus and related mushrooms
- Characterise breeding systems, genetic diversity and inter-species relationships within the genus Agaricus to (i) identify potential for direct cultivation of alternative species and (ii) to provide sources of novel variation for introgression into A. bisporus
- Identify key genes involved in mushroom morphogenesis with a view to controlling fruit body development

Hey Apoon,
Quote:
at least based on what little experience i have with fungi genetics, combining unrelated species is impossible (or near impossible)
Not at all. Search for venomized agar. Like I wrote a few pages back, I have some on order from Sigma, just like RR did. And I plan to make an intergenus HYBRID (no, it's not a "cross").
This topic is way too advanced for this thread but if you search you'll find what you are looking for.
I would download the Aloha Medicinals article (PDF) describing how they did it, they were the first. RR copied their methodology and so will I when I make a few intergenus hybrids this year.

I have the same reservations about the term.
But most retail stores sell many brands. A grocery store has many brands of noodles. However I agree with your assessment of the word 'Brand'. It is better if it specifies where the spores came from.
For example:
A Ralphster's Brand PE could be a little different from a Sporeworks or Hawkseye Brand PE.
Quote:
Maybe 'cultures' would be a more fitting term? Like the Ralphsters "brand" offers many different P.cubensis "cultures" (interspecies cross like PE or B+) and also offers P.cubensis "strains" (land-race genotypes like the African or Ecuador). Just a thought, what do you think Cervantes?
In the world of cubes, the word 'Culture' suggests living tissue, and that could cause legal problems for the vendors who live in places which can only sell magic mushroom spores.
So... if not 'brand' or 'culture'... what else?
How 'bout 'class' 'grade' or 'type'?
PE 'Class' Cubes B+ 'Grade' spores Orissa 'Type' print
?

consider it put to bed. it seemed like a more stimulating direction for the strain discussion than the usual redundancy. livingston and cervantes, thank you greatly. i was simply trying to make it make sense to me on a genetic level as i think we will all agree that the term "strain" in this respect is misleading (for whatever reason). that was the real point i was trying to make.
(oh, and i would have zero issue with the term "brand" as it implies something named by man and not necessarily by nature, nature calls it p.cubensis, period)

In regards to the sporepod strain discussed above the exact quote from the site is:
"Gold colored cap up to 10" diameter, white veiled stem 8"-10" tall."
I am sure under optimum conditions it is possible to get these results.
