Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a cultivation method of selenium and zinc-rich Cordyceps cicadae and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Cordyceps cicadae belongs to Ascomycota, Cordycipitaceae and Isaria, and is a kind of entomogenous fungus with both medicinal and edible functions. Cordyceps cicadae extract contains rich bioactive components. Cordyceps cicadae polysaccharide has good antioxidant, antitumor and blood lipid-lowering effects. Cordycepic acid has the effects of lowering blood pressure and blood lipid and replacing sugar as a sweetener. Cordycepin has certain anticancer effect. At the same time, Cordyceps cicadae has similar active components to Cordyceps sinensis. Due to the short cultivation period and large biomass, Cordyceps cicadae becomes an optimal substitute for Cordyceps sinensis. Due to the limitations of natural conditions and overexploitation by human factors, the yield of wild Cordyceps cicadae cannot meet market demand, and there are differences in quality among different varieties. Therefore, artificial cultivation can be carried out, and the conditions of the culture medium can be adjusted to obtain high content of target products.
[0003] Selenium and zinc are essential trace elements for the human body, which are mainly supplemented through food intake to maintain the health of the body. Selenium deficiency in the human body can cause local diseases such as Keshan disease and Kashin-Beck disease, and also cause high incidence of diseases such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. Appropriate selenium intake is beneficial to health, but high selenium intake also poses health risks. In the natural environment, selenium mainly exists in the form of inorganic selenium such as selenate and selenite, and organic selenium such as selenomethionine, selenocystine, selenomethylselenocysteine and selenoprotein. Organic selenium has higher biological activity and safety than inorganic selenium, and is more easily digested and absorbed by animals. The Chinese Nutrition Society determines that the appropriate range of human selenium intake is 60-400 μg / d. Zinc is also an essential trace element for the human body. Zinc can promote the normal development of the human body, improve appetite, improve the immune capacity of the body, and enhance the resistance to diseases. Zinc deficiency can cause dwarfism and poor intellectual development. The Chinese Nutrition Society recommends that the zinc intake of adult men is 12.5 mg / d, the zinc intake of adult women is 7.5 mg / d, and the zinc intake of pregnant women is 9.5 mg / d. Edible fungi can be cultivated by selenium and zinc enrichment to increase the selenium and zinc content in the fruiting bodies, which has important biological significance. However, there is no report on the use of Cordyceps cicadae to simultaneously enrich selenium and zinc and increase the content of active substances such as cordycepic acid and adenosine. SUMMARY

[0078] Example 1 Isolation, screening and identification of selenium-resistant high-yield strain
[0079] A 0.5M sodium selenite solution was prepared and sterilized by filtration, and then added to a modified PDA medium at about 50°C to make the final concentration of selenium 200mg / L, thereby preparing a selenium-containing modified PDA plate. Wild Cymbidium ensifolium was collected from Tianmushan in Zhejiang, and 3 spore stalks of Cymbidium ensifolium were cut from the Cymbidium ensifolium and placed in 20ml sterile water, shaken for 5 minutes on a vortex shaker, and 200ul of sterile water containing spores was evenly spread on the modified PDA medium plate containing 200mg / L of selenium, and cultured at 21°C for 7 days, to obtain 12 strains M1-M12.
[0080] Cymbidium ensifolium M1-M12 were inoculated into modified PDA medium and cultured in a 21°C constant temperature incubator for 20 days until a large amount of spores were produced, and then 5mm diameter activated Cymbidium ensifolium fungus cakes of each strain were inoculated into 500ml conical flasks containing 150ml modified PD medium, cultured at 21°C at a speed of 180r / min for 3 days to prepare seed liquid. Wheat and Cymbidium ensifolium cultivation nutrient solution was mixed according to the ratio of 20g:25ml (1:1.25), and then sterilized at 121°C under high temperature and high pressure. The prepared Cymbidium ensifolium seed liquid was diluted 5 times with sterile water, and 5ml of diluted bacterial liquid was added to each cultivation bottle. Each strain was cultivated in 10 bottles, and the cultivation bottles inoculated with bacteria were transferred to a constant temperature cultivation room at 21°C, with a relative humidity of 80% and light-free cultivation for 4 days, followed by 12 hours of white light and 12 hours of red light alternate light illumination for 35 days, and the fruiting bodies were matured, and the top spores were harvested. The harvested Cymbidium ensifolium fruiting bodies were dried in an oven at 50°C and weighed. The biomass of the fruiting bodies of the 12 Cymbidium ensifolium strains M1-M12 cultivated was 1.22±0.23g, 1.68±0.11g, 1.37±0.28g, 1.93±0.43g, 2.11±0.33g, 1.76±0.22g, 2.39±0.15g, 2.71g±0.17g, 1.66±0.24g, 1.99g±0.33g, 1.13±0.14g and 1.45±0.12g, respectively. Among them, the biomass of the fruiting bodies of M8 was significantly higher than that of the other 11 strains, and M8 was used as the preferred strain of the present application.
[0081] The colony is round, the surface is fluffy, the mycelium is white at the initial stage and is closely attached to the culture medium, and is yellowish at the later stage, and produces a large amount of conidiospores, and is gray Figure 1 The conidial phialide is relatively dense, the base of the sporulating cell is oval or spherical, the single conidiospore wall is smooth and transparent, is long oval or slightly curved with a waist contraction, and the size is (5-14) pm x (1.4-2.9) pm, and the spores are mostly aggregated in long chains (as shown in Figure 2 ), and after searching, the above characteristics are consistent with the characteristics of Isaria cicadae in Chinese Fungi.
[0082] The CTAB method was used to extract the genomic DNA of the M8 strain, and ITS1F (5'-CTTGGTCATTTAGAGGAAGTAA-3') and ITS2R (5'-GCTGCGTTCTTCATCGATGC-3') were used as primers to obtain the ITS DNA fragment of the M8 strain by PCR amplification, and the ITS sequence of the PCR product after purification was as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The results of sequence alignment analysis in the NCBI (https: / / www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / ) online database showed that the ITS sequence of the M8 strain had 100% similarity with the ITS sequence of the Isaria cicadae strain, and the M8 strain was identified as Isaria cicadae in combination with the morphological characteristics.
[0083] Example 2 Selenium tolerance of Isaria cicadae
[0084] Sodium selenate Se (Ⅵ), sodium selenite Se (Ⅳ) and nano selenium SeNPs were added to the modified PDA culture medium, so that the final selenium concentration (calculated as selenium) gradient range was 0-20000 mg / L, 0-10000 mg / L and 0-1000 mg / L, respectively. After the Isaria cicadae strain M8 was cultured on the modified PDA plate for 7 days, a 5 mm diameter fungus cake was inoculated on the modified PDA plate added with different selenium concentrations, and was cultured in a constant temperature incubator at 21℃ for 11 days. The colony diameter was measured by using a vernier caliper.
[0085] Selenium tolerance culture results of Isaria cicadae on solid medium Figure 1 , Figure 3) shows that: when the concentration of selenium is 1-1000mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony has no significant difference compared with the control group; when the concentration of selenium is 5000 and 10000mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony is significantly larger than the control group; when the concentration of selenium reaches 20000mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony is significantly smaller than the control group, and the growth of M8 colony is inhibited, with an inhibition rate of 24.5%. When Se(Ⅳ) is added to the culture medium, when the concentration of selenium reaches 1-50mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony has no significant difference compared with the control group; when the concentration of selenium reaches 500 and 1000mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony is significantly smaller than the control group, and the growth of M8 colony is inhibited, with an inhibition rate of 23.44% and 66.89% respectively. When SeNPs is added to the culture medium, when the concentration of selenium is 1-50mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony has no significant difference compared with the control group; when the concentration of selenium reaches 500 and 1000mg / L, the diameter of M8 colony is significantly smaller than the control group, and the growth of M8 colony is inhibited, but the diameter of M8 colony is significantly larger than that of Se(Ⅳ) treatment with the same concentration. The IC 50 of Se(Ⅳ) is calculated by fitting with Logistic Equation, which is 645.8mg / L, and the correlation coefficient is 0.9959. Figure 4 .
[0086] Example 3 Influence of selenium on the morphology of mycelium and spores of C. sinensis
[0087] Se(Ⅵ), Se(Ⅳ) and SeNPs filtered and sterilized are added to the modified PDA culture medium to make the final selenium concentration (calculated as selenium) 750mg / L. C. sinensis strain M8 is cultured on the modified PDA plate for 7 days, and then 5mm diameter of mycelium is inoculated on the modified PDA containing different forms of selenium. The culture is incubated in a constant temperature incubator at 21℃ until the 5th day. A cover glass is inserted obliquely at the edge of the mycelium, and the culture dish is sealed and returned to the incubator for incubation until the 11th day. The morphology of mycelium and spores is observed under an optical microscope. The microscope observation result Figure 5 ) shows that: the spore-producing structure of the control group is complete, and the single cell is slender. SeNPs treatment group has no significant influence on the spore-producing structure and cell morphology of C. sinensis; in Se(Ⅳ) and Se(Ⅵ) treatment groups, the cells are short and thick, and the top of the mycelium is often forked. No spore-producing structure is observed in Se(Ⅳ) treatment group, and only a large number of top cyst structures are observed in Se(Ⅵ) treatment group. It is indicated that SeNPs has less influence on the morphology of mycelium, and Se(Ⅵ) and Se(Ⅳ) have great influence on the spore-producing structure and mycelium branching.

[0089] 1. Activation of C. sinensis strain
[0090] Cicada flower M8 was inoculated into modified PDA medium and cultured in a constant temperature incubator at 21℃ for 20 days until a large number of spores were produced before use.
