ALVARADO-CASTILLO, Gerardo; BENITEZ-BADILLO, Griselda  e  MATA, Gerardo. Morchella inoculation in situ: first record in Mexico. Madera bosques [online]. 2015, vol.21, n.3, pp.129-135. ISSN 2448-7597.

The first case of obtaining Morchella in Mexico by inoculation in situ is presented. This mushroom is economically important for its high demand in the domestic and international market, but despite the fact that some patents for commercial production have been generated; their production still depends essentially on field harvesting. An experiment was conducted in the laboratory to evaluate the mycelial growth of two species of Morchella in four types of grains (corn, oats, wheat and rye), to determine which is the most appropriate inoculant agent. The strains used were: M. esculenta (IE-750) and M. conica (IE-815, 817-IE, IE-816 and IE-814), of which the best treatment was IE-817 in rye, which was subsequently injected into the soil of a piece of land located in a cloud forest mountain disturbed (with predominance of species of the genus Inga, Liquidambar, and Sambucus). As a result three fruiting periods were obtained between in 2009 and 2011. This indicates the possibility of obtaining this mushroom through production strategies in situ, which would trigger a new approach to production under a mycosilviculture scheme.
