Where is the producing area of matsutake distributed? What is the edible value? Can it be planted artificially?

Where is the origin of Tricholoma matsutake distributed?

Tricholoma matsutake is endemic to Asia, mainly distributed in Japan, Korean Peninsula and China's Shangri-La, Chuxiong, Yanbian, Taiwan and other regions. It is reported that there are varieties of Tricholoma matsutake in the United States and Europe, but the yield is low and the quality is poor. Among the global production areas of Tricholoma matsutake, Shangri-La in China has the highest production of Tricholoma matsutake, accounting for about 70% of the total output of Tricholoma matsutake in China and 33% of the total global output.

1. Domestic origin of Tricholoma matsutake: the main producing areas of Tricholoma matsutake are Yanbian area of Jilin Province, Mudanjiang area of Heilongjiang Province, Yunnan and Xizang.

2. The international origin of Tricholoma matsutake: the international origin of Tricholoma matsutake mainly includes Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Myanmar, the United States, Mexico and other countries. The shape of Tricholoma matsutake in each country is not exactly the same.

What is the edible value of matsutake?

1. Anti-cancer, anti-tumor and anti-radiation: after World War II, Tricholoma matsutake became the only special species to grow after the atomic bomb, which indirectly proved that Tricholoma matsutake has a very strong anti-radiation function. Scientific research has also found that Tricholoma matsutake polysaccharides can protect cells from mutation. At the same time, Tricholoma matsutake contains a special double-stranded bioactive substance-matrinol, which has strong anti-mutation ability and strong anticancer effect.

2. Beauty anti-aging: the Tricholoma matsutake polysaccharides contained in Tricholoma matsutake have certain cosmetic and anti-aging effects, which can enhance the antioxidant ability of the body and interfere with the deposition of melanin, thus making the skin whitening and beautiful.

3. Improve immunity: Tricholoma matsutake has a variety of nutrients needed by the human body, including protein, fat and a variety of amino acids, as well as vitamins B1, B2, C and PP.

It can also reduce the content of cholesterol and blood viscosity, prevent hypertension, atherosclerosis and cerebral thrombosis and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

5. Improve blood sugar: Tricholoma matsutake can stimulate insulin secretion, accelerate liver glucose metabolism, and has the effect of directly reducing blood sugar.

Can matsutake be planted artificially?

Matsutake can be cultivated artificially.

At present, the artificial domestication and cultivation of Tricholoma matsutake is mainly carried out in the suitable forest. The successful methods are as follows: 1. In order to make Tricholoma matsutake spores germinate into hyphae and form mycorrhiza in pine forest, the spores must be close to the fine roots of pine trees; the life span of Tricholoma matsutake spores is very short. Fresh spores must be sowed into the pine forest in time to survive.
