Description
Cantharellus cerinoalbus is a Southeast Asian chanterelle, waxy white to pale yellow, and this liquid culture makes an extremely rarely held chanterelle taxon available as verified living stock. Out-Grow's liquid culture syringe delivers live, actively growing Cantharellus cerinoalbus mycelium in sterile nutrient solution.
As with every chanterelle, obligate ectomycorrhizal biology means this species does not fruit on sterilized substrate; it requires a living host tree. The working pathway is mycelial culture: agar expansion, preservation, and host inoculation research, and that is what this syringe is built for.
Why Work With Cantharellus cerinoalbus?
Chanterelle cultures are scarce; tropical chanterelle cultures are nearly unobtainable. C. cerinoalbus stock supports the mycorrhizal synthesis work that any future chanterelle domestication depends on, along with systematics of a genus whose tropical diversity is still being described.
Working Conditions:
Expand on MEA at 72 to 80 F in darkness, reflecting its tropical forest origin. Expect slow, waxy-cream colony growth. Ectomycorrhizal culture discipline applies in full: early transfers, multiple backups, and strict asepsis, since slow growth gives contaminants a standing invitation.
Key Characteristics of Cantharellus cerinoalbus:
- Ecology: Tropical ectomycorrhizal chanterelle associated with living forest trees in Southeast Asia.
- Culture Behavior: Slow, pale, waxy colony development on malt extract agar; requires patient, sterile handling.
- Research Value: One of very few tropical chanterelle taxa available in culture, central to mycorrhizal synthesis research.
Taxonomy of Cantharellus cerinoalbus:
- Kingdom: Fungi
- Phylum: Basidiomycota
- Class: Agaricomycetes
- Order: Cantharellales
- Family: Cantharellaceae
- Genus: Cantharellus
- Species: Cantharellus cerinoalbus
Storage and Usage Tips:
Store your Cantharellus cerinoalbus liquid culture syringe in a cool, dark location without hard chilling, and expand promptly. Tropical mycorrhizal stock is effectively irreplaceable; maintain backups from the first transfer.
