天麻系兰科植物,本身无根无叶,不具植物营养器官,必须借助蜜环菌提供养料才能生长发育。蜜环菌是白蘑料的一种食用真菌。在自然环境中常常伸展到天麻块茎上,侵入块茎表层细胞内,并不断分泌其内含物,成为天麻的营养物质来源,进而促进天麻生长开花结果。离开了蜜环菌,天麻的种子将不发芽,块茎也将萎缩退化。根据天麻、蜜环菌的这种共生关系,中国医学科学院药物研究所开展了培养利用蜜环菌以代替天麻的研究。采用发酵法生产蜜环菌,液体发酵和固体发酵均获得成功。药理实验证明在所用剂量下天麻与蜜环菌发酵物具有同样的生物活性,临床试验证明二者 The flora of the Gastrodia family, which is rootless and leafless, does not have a plant vegetative organ and must be fed with Armillarix to provide nutrients for growth and development. Honey fungus is an edible fungus of white mushrooms. In the natural environment, it often spreads to the tuber of Gastrodia elata, invades the cells in the surface layer of the tuber, and continuously secretes its contents, which becomes the source of nutrients of Gastrodia elata, thereby promoting the growth and flowering results of Gastrodia. Leave Armillaria, the seeds of Gastrodia will not germinate, tubers will also shrink and degenerate. According to this symbiotic relationship between Gastrodia and Armillaria, the Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences carried out research on the cultivation of Armillariella instead of gastrodia. The fermentation method was used to produce Armillaria mellea, and both liquid fermentation and solid fermentation were successful. Pharmacological experiments have demonstrated that Gastrodia elata and Armillaria ferment have the same biological activity at the doses used, and clinical trials have shown that
