Subject: Volvariella volvacea cultures or spore samples
Hello, My name is Sam Andrasko and I am the owner of The Petri Plate. We sell fresh spawn to local community farms for the sustainable production of mushrooms here in San Diego California. I have many farms asking for Volvariella Volvacea spawn currently and wanted to know if you have fresh pure cultures or spore prints available for purchase. We have knowledge of producing pure cultures from homothalic spores so if the spores are easiest we can manage. Please let me know if this is possible and for what price they are available.

Thank you,

Dear Sam,

Thank for your inquiry, in respond to your question :- Yes we do have Volvariella volvacea culture as you could see thru our website www.anonbiotec.com . Though Vovariella mushroom could be counted as homothallic type but commercially tissue culture from egg stage mushroom would give true result and easier than spore culture. We usually send our culture in steriled zip bag and post thru registered airmail as per ordinary mail without phytosanitary certificate and import permit to save the initial cost and lenghty official process. Our price would be liaison with ATCC price rate(American Types Culture Collection) ie. US$ 210 each(including packaging and transportation cost)

Once again thank for your kind interest in our products

Best regards

Prof. Dr. Anon Auetragul
